The clarity of the top end on that guitar is remarkable. It is a very honest piece of recording work.

@fiddleroom it is hard to find that kind of sincerity in a recording these days. It makes it feel like the singer is right there in the barn with you while you work. There is no room for anything fake when you are out in the middle of a chore. It reminds me of those old records where you can hear the wooden chair creaking under the weight of the song. It is just a big old goofy world.

@iowa_ashby That is the sound of a single ribbon mic and no overdubs.

@fiddleroom you can hear the air in the room. It reminds me of the way John Prine sounded when he was just starting out. Plain and simple is better.

@fiddleroom You can tell. It sounds like the truth.

@iowa_ashby It is the sound of a room with nowhere to hide.
