Ronnie and Jason should remake that as a Brothers Martin album.

Because he plays a lot of the strings open, and those sound particularly naked when played with no production/overdrive/effects. That's how I can best describe it. It's not out-of-tune, it's naked. And I think that was exactly the desired effect.

It's a Joy Electric side project with acoustic guitar songs.

It's pretty low quality when you compare it to The Brothers Martin album or most of the Joy Electric albums, except for the singing on My Grandfather The Cubist. It's a demo quality project with a synth bass. It's no wonder Ebel didn't want to put it out.

That's also a bit of an apples-and-oranges comparison...!

"All These Changes Come" and "I'll Never Recover" are great tracks, imo.

For those wondering about this side project:

Actually I like Ronald of Orange better than Shepherd.
