One thing that I really enjoy about listening to these albums is the sheer variety of styles and genres that count as music. In this case, this is sparse and acoustic and I guess would be classed somewhere between country, folk and Americana. It was recorded in the same RCA recording studio where Elvis worked, which gives it a unique resonance and suits their style.
The opening track was their initial mic test in the studio, and a later track was recorded the very first time they had played it. It gives the album a very raw and immediate feel, with production that puts you right in the middle of the music. All of the songs are original compositions, but my favourite was Red Clay Halo which sounds like it could have been a traditional Bluegrass number.
Banjo-tastic!
