    The first of two releases recorded live with Joe Reyes at his home studio, December 2010 - March 2011. The 23 songs of this album and Shores of Erewhon were recorded spontaneously in groups of two or three with Hills on guitar and vocals and Joe on guitars. Some tracks have added instruments and many were single takes.

    "Wolverton’s got some potent, quiet music, and the recordings make you feel like they’re right there, reckoning the quirks of our heritage right alongside them. What it leaves out is as important as what it throws together but is gloriously free of twang or self-conscious neo-traditionalism. Contemplative, affectionate, warm and gently flawed, it’s roots music sans self-importance, and Hills Snyder’s songwriting is witty and doleful and full of unexpected touches; as in 'Guts,' a small song that sounds like deeply personal footnotes to the human epic. You know how in 'Tangled Up In Blue,' you can’t tell whether the time frame is 19th century or Now? Kinda like that."

lyrics

Just Like Hello

He came into Brussels
like Doc McCord that day
He came into Brussels
like Doc McCord that day

window in his wagon
bullet in his head
a window in his wagon
a bullet hole in his head

body drained and leaning
straight up like El Cid
his body drained and leaning
he sat up straight just like El Cid

goat stood on a rock pile
sky felt like a lid
a goat stood on a rock pile
the sky felt like a lid

a field of clover
falcon circled low
in a field of clover
a falcon circled low

thought that I was having
fit just like hello
the thought that I was having
fit just like a hello

every leaf singing
veins full of blood
every leaf was singing
my veins were full of blood
