{"product_id":"cowboy-junkies-lay-it-down","title":"Cowboy Junkies - Lay It Down","description":"\u003cp\u003eNEW VINYL LP ON REAL GONE 2023\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e180 GRAM VINYL.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery Cowboy Junkies album is a sonic treat, full of gorgeous guitar tones from Michael Timmins haunting vocals from Margo Timmins, and beautiful arrangements, and 1996¡¯s Lay it Down is no exception. But there is one big difference between this album and its predecessors: it rocks! And pretty hard, too, particularly on the Crazy Horse-esque Canadian hit ¡°A Common Disaster,¡± ¡°Just Want to See,¡± and the Paisley Underground-style title track. The pared-down quartet line-up accounts for some of this tougher approach; but producer John Keane definitely shaped this album¡¯s sound, lending these songs a palpable Athens, GA\/R.E.M. vibe that transports the Junkies out of their customary Americana\/alt-country territory into a more indie-rock feel. Lay It Down is a mature album, tackling complex themes (¡°Come Calling [His Song]¡± and ¡°Come Calling [Her Song]¡± tackle the onset of Alzheimer¡¯s from the perspective of an elderly afflicted couple) with the confidence of a band at the peak of its powers. It¡¯s long-overdue for a release on LP, and we at Real Gone Music are proud to present it on pristine black vinyl inside a jacket and printed inner sleeve with lyrics. A great listen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA1. Something More Besides You\u003cbr\u003eA2.
