The singer-songwriter John Gorka specializes in songs of regret, and this set, in which he's accompanied by frequent collaborator Nanci Griffith and a small band, contains some heartachingly beautiful examples. Gorka's version of Townes Van Zandt's "Snow Don't Fall" gets a beautiful setting of acoustic guitar and electric piano, while Gorka's own "The Lockkeeper" is a hard-edged narrative told in a deceptively matter-of-fact style.

Editorial Reviews
Gorka steps out of his gentle folkie mode twice, offering the high-stepping humor of 'I Miss Everyone' and the lightly grooving 'When You Sing', inspired by Mavis Staples.
