It Starts With a Birthstone - 200 Albums for 2024 # 199 Iron & Wine - Light Verse

 

Iron & Wine is a name I know by repute rather than having listened to the actual records much down the years. An Americana Alternative Folk Figure I suspected.  Better later than never I thought as I sat down to listen to Light Verse Sam Beam's latest record yesterday afternoon. 

It's a smooth ride and he's a master of his trade/ A guildsman. Earthy, pastoral unembroidered songs that are best appreciated early in the morning or late at night. Or come to think of it on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Oh scrub that. Play it when you like. It will work its magic.
