Iron And Wine

Just bought 'Our Endless Numbered Days' on the iTunes store - brings the number of records I bought up to 4, and i have to say it's really beautiful. Especially in these post funeral days where the thoughts of Bubbie's plain pine casket with the magen david on it, with her frail-once-lively body in it, being lowered to the ground are haunting me; and the silence and emptiness of her house are ringing in my mind.
It's a beautiful slightly melancholy record, home made, delicious, thoughtful. Comes as a great reminder that the right thing at the right time makes a song what it is, not all the production in the world.
