RIYL: Neil Young, lo-fi folk, and more Neil Young

Woods - Songs of Shame

rockin' in the free world via Shrimper records (2009)

Funny how an outside nudge is all it takes to give a once dismissed record a second, more receptive look. In this case that nudge came from a friend, and man was he right; this record rules. True to the grower credo, Songs of Shame takes some breaking in over a few listens. Volume helps.

Check out the fragile fuzz-rock of "To Clean," "Echo Lake," "Rain On," and "Gypsy Hand"
