Chelsea Writes

The year Ryan Adams released Gold, was the year my musical taste changed direction quite dramatically. I embraced alt.country with fevour and thought I’d be a Ryan Adams devotee for life. After Love is Hell parts 1 &2, however, I stopped listening to him. His record-releasing binge wasn’t always about quality output and rather than spend time sifting through all the tracks, panning for the gold, as it were, I just moved on.

I caught this BBC session by chance on ABC2, however, and I think I may have returned to the fold. Ryan Adams + Cardinals = strike it rich!*

*I may have been watching a lot of Deadwood recently.
