Description
I do not sell copies or bootlegs.
I post my LPs by Tracked Delivery. I use good quality reinforced cardboard cases and separate the Vinyl from the Sleeves to prevent splits in covers. I also enclose a plastic sleeve for storage if the shrink wrap on the sleeves is not intact.
Reviews:
The Civil Wars’ sophomore self-titled album is the follow up to the three-time Grammy Award-winning duo’s acclaimed debut, Barton Hollow, which is now certified RIAA Gold in the U.S.. The Civil Wars was recorded in Nashville between August 2012 and January 2013 with Charlie Peacock once again at the helm as producer for the album. Additionally, Rick Rubin produced the duo’s performance for the track “I Had Me a Girl” in August of 2011. Peacock later completed the track by producing the instrumentation and mix.
The second album from The Civil Wars, a Nashville duo composed of John Paul White and Joy Williams, is one of the best music releases of 2013 in my opinion. I have owned their first album, Barton Hollow, since 2011 and I love their music. It is a blend of country and Americana with a unique twist. The first album is quite different to this second album: there is a darker, more melancholic sound here. My favourite songs on this album are "The One that Got Away" (listening for the first time gave me goosebumps) and, in complete contrast, the cheerful "From This Valley". Most of the songs are dark and haunting, with lyrics which tell of lost love and troubled minds.
Joy's vocals feature more heavily on this album than they do in the Barton Hollow tracks. I think Joy Williams is a fantastic vocal artist but I like the Barton Hollow tracks where they both sing and it is like they are having a conversation with each other in the lyrics.
One of the reasons why I like The Civil Wars' music so much is because they put so much emotion into it. It is raw and real and beautiful.
