Carry Me Home

by Mavis Staples & Levon Helm

supported by

bdwlecteur Knew "Farther Along" and "The Weight" would be great, but "Hand Writing on the Wall," "You Got to Serve Somebody," and several others are irresistible as well. Another gift from Mavis, doubly so with Levon! Favorite track: Hand Writing On The Wall.

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off. felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery. thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness

Wilco being Wilco. Nothin' new here, but when a band has been in the busineess for decades and releases a 21 track album and most of them are really good, it's one of the greatest. alfayate
