Dusty (Fred Eaglesmith album)

Dusty is the 12th studio album by Canadian alternative country singer-songwriter Fred Eaglesmith.

... (A)im(ing) for classic Memphis blue-eyed soul(, i)t doesn't exactly achieve this goal.

"[1] The reviewer at The Sydney Morning Herald gave Dusty a 4-star rating, saying, "It's neither country nor folk - it just is what it is.

These stories rarely mention it directly, but they reek of a time where on top of the daily hassles of working, wanting and getting by is a patina of gnawing despair.

It's a sorrow aimed at a world more fixed on anger, retribution and empty religious sentiments than offering hope.
