Sturgill SimpsonA Sailor's Guide to Earth
$25.00Call to Order
Written beginning to end as a letter to his newborn son. 'Welcome to Earth (Pollywog)' opens as a tender lullaby then detonates into Memphis funk at the 2:40 mark. The Dap-Kings horn section delivers punchy brass across five tracks. A Nirvana cover of 'In Bloom' gets a full soul-band arrangement. Vocals like a marriage of Waylon Jennings and Otis Redding. Won the Grammy for Best Country Album.
