Tom Russell's New Album Receives Praise: 9/15/2009

Check out some of the reviews coming in for Tom Russell's new album, Blood And Candle Smoke:



Blood and Candle Smoke is unlike anything in Russell's catalog. It is his most musically ambitious, lyrically sophisticated album.” All Music Guide


“Russell is our finest writer/criminologist/poet/taxi driver/painter. And he can sure sing a love song (Finding You), a heartbreaking landscape (Crosses of San Carlos) and an apocalypse (Mississippi River Runnin' Backwards). Members of Calexico deftly fill in the background of these stunning portraits.” – USA TODAY


“He combines forces with Calexico to produce a work of considerable power…. it’s perhaps a work that will gain him the broader recognition he has long deserved.” – PASTE


“Russell sings with heartfelt authority, while Calexico’s cool elegance balances the emotional ticket.” – MOJO


“4 STARS” – American Songwriter


"requiems for a vanishing homeland, his novelistic eye spinning tales of apaches in stolen cars, riverboat casinos, and 'winds colder than a witch's tit.'" - Uncut
