Rated 8/10

M. John Hurt has that Nick Drake vibe going on here, somber, peaceful, melancholic, but with happiness and the feeling of humility and being grateful (something Nick was a stranger to). It's very well executed country blues folk, and I love the feeling it evokes: sitting in front of a house overlooking fields of both crops and grass.

It's hard for me to say much more, because the music itself doesn't give a lot to review. It's just one man and his guitar creating great music that both requires attention, especially if you focus on his amazing guitar work, but can be enjoyed in the background as a minimalist part of the atmosphere you create.

Rated 8/10

Crazy good music.
