there's no relief in this.

  • The first CD is dark and moody, yet strangely uplifting. The second disc contains two tracks off the first one (why bother?), but also has a number of cuts that he was working on at home right before he died. The last song is an incredible version of "Satisfied Mind" that he performed for a radio station a few years ago. His first CD (Grace) is one of my favorite CDs (if not the favorite), so I guess it should be no surprise that I think this double disc is a must-have as well.
