Richard Shindell's 6th CD finds him with a new label (Koch) and a new group of musicians (from Argentina - the country he now calls home). The new musicians add a slightly different spice to the mix, but Shindell retains his signature sound.Former Cry Cry Cry bandmate Lucy Kaplansky makes an appearance, as does Tracy Grammer and Radoslav Lorkovic. No major surpises here, just a nicely polished gem from one great singer/songwriter.
