I'm getting there - a fine lullaby, but one to play at bedtime, not at work. Dopamine rising, narcolepsy approaching, I can feel my eyelids getting heavy... {#Sleep}

At the first notes for the song I thought it was David Gilmour, wonder if there is any influence there.  Nice song either way.

I don't like to give 10's away, especially for newer artiest... but I just love Iron and Wine.

PLEASE play more Iron & Wine!  Woman King EP!!!

I've seen them live twice.  The first time was on their tour with Calexico when they finished the show with a combined set of songs from their album.  The second time I was in the 5th row.  Awesome.

My wife walked down the aisle to their (his?) version of "Such Great Heights"
 
I saw them in Baltimore last week and was literally standing at the edge of the stage, all of 10 feet from Sam Beam himself.  What an amazing concert.

This whole set of music is excellent. Bill is the king of good seques from one song to the next. Elliot Smith into Iron & Wine...excellent choice!

Heh. I can't put you in a box man. I spot you one place dissing long hairs, in another lusting after Ani hairy pits and all, and now you're smoking pot with your girlfriend.

I started with The Creek Drank the Cradle. Pretty sweet and low-key.
Iron & Wine-low key. I refuse to believe it.

Prozac inspired?


Lol! Yea, to get the "vocal effect" Samuel Beam must be taking some sort of benzodiazapine, hydromorphone, lithium or combo thereof. Still, dig the subtly pyschedelic folk sound.
