Veteran country singer Bobby Bare`s return to solo recording after a 20-year hiatus is overseen by his son, Bobby Bare, Jr., who augments strictly traditional arrangements with off-kilter sonic flourishes and appearances from neo-country interpreters like violinist Andrew Bird and singer-songwriter Paul Burch. Bare`s world-weary voice eases comfortably into a set of tried-and-true covers that spans classics like Shel Silverstein`s "Ballad of Lucy Jordan," "Love Letters in the Sand," and "Am I That Easy to Forget," while Bobby Jr.`s frequently inspired production both highlights the music`s familiarity and accentuates its weirdness.
