Cowboy Junkies - Pale Sun, Crescent Moon

From the distant year of 1993 - an era rich in this kind of thing. For me, only now coming to this album gives it the air of a lost classic, a dispatch from another time - yet I suspect it always had something of that air, even back when it was first released. I never went deep into the Cowboy Junkies beyond The Trinity Session and Rarities, B-Sides & Slow, Sad Waltzes (both iconic enough in their own right) but they cast a long, wispy shadow.
