As we await a brand new release and the tour getting started, we are revisiting the album that turned us on to Elliot Randall at X Country, Take The Fall. San Franciscan Randall has a sweet voice, a keen eye, a deft hand with lyrics, and a great command of production dynamics. By the way, a couple of bonus tracks have been added since the original release! What a good album this is! We can hardly wait for the third one! My recommended tracks for you POD-ing pleasure:

Cut 1 "How To Get Old" -  great hook as country meets rock meets pop

Cut 3 "Second Time Around" - a modern classic

Cut 4 "Take The Fall" - Luscious, brooding

Cut 5 "Everything Reminds Me of You" -  countrified singer songwriter fare

Cut 6 "Don't Give Up On Me" - tuneful, sentimental, and driving

Cut 9: "We Don't Talk Like We Used To" - gentle, aching

Cut 10: "Leaving This Town" - pure fun- hands in the air

Cut 11 "Red Velvet Curtains" - new bonus track - cogent, relatable, rockin'
