Old Crow Medicine Show, Remedy

NPR (First Listen) is streaming Old Crow Medicine Show's new album, Remedy, this week at npr.org. I was very excited to listen to this abulm, and the whole family agreed Remedy was the perfect 'dinner at the picnic table on this beautiful summer night' soundtrack for tonight... The album starts out super engaging, and ends dynamiclly, but they lost me somewhere in the middle. In two songs, I felt in complete disagreement with NPR's smiling review, but they would end and my foot started tapping again. I can't quite put my finger on what was off... Perhaps I just miss Willie Watson. His special twang was a signature sound in the band. Either way, worth a listen!
