Well, Ryan Adams isn’t dead. In fact, it looks like he is finally getting it together. I mean, he’s cleaned up (who thought that would happen?) and made some of the more polished recordings of his career. He’s teamed up with the Cardinals again for his ninth LP “Easy Tiger”, so there are the obligatory guitar solos and extended jams. They certainly don’t detract from the album in any way, in fact it makes it into the bona fide alt country-rock album it should be, compete with tasteful pedal steel on “Tears of Gold.”
