Our Take
Our Take
Dave Alvin's Eleven Eleven (11th Anniversary Deluxe Edition) is a delicious slice of Americana pie, served up with a side of twang and a sprinkle of grit. This album is like a hot cup of tea on a rainy day - comforting, familiar, and oh so satisfying.
Alvin's gravelly vocals are as smooth as a fine whiskey, and his guitar playing is like a master chef whipping up a delectable feast for your ears. From the rollicking energy of "Harlan County Line" to the poignant beauty of "1968," each track on this album is a rich tapestry of storytelling and emotion.
The bonus tracks on this deluxe edition only add to the already impressive spread, with live versions of fan favourites like "Black Sky" and "Two Lucky Bums." It's like getting an extra scoop of ice cream on top of an already decadent sundae - a sweet surprise that leaves you wanting more.
Whether you're a die-hard Dave Alvin fan or a newcomer to his music, Eleven Eleven is an album that demands your attention. So grab a pint of beer, put on your favourite cowboy boots, and let this album take you on a wild ride through the heart of Americana. Dave Alvin may have been around the block a few times, but he still knows how to make music that hits the spot. Cheers to another eleven years of musical excellence!
