The reason why I bought it: "The Golden State", a surging, driving-down-the-highway roots-rocker by a guy called 'John Doe', featuring Kathleen Edwards' always conviction-filled vocals on duet.
The pleasing curiosity: the Watson Twins doing a slowed-down (how else?) "Just Like Heaven".
The classics: "Lake Charles" (Lucinda), "Christine's Tune" (Flying Burrito Brothers).
The rest: an assortment of southern-flavoured rock, sometimes drawing more from the swamp and sometimes from the desert.
Overall, pretty listenable but not one that's really made for repeat spins as a whole. (I'm kind of saving the tv show itself for a future time when I really want to dive headlong into the kind of escapist, mood-drenched, hyper-melodramatic fantasy that I imagine it to be.)
