Moments Worth Listening For
The way the pedal steel mimics a sigh during the transition into the title track's chorus.
The rhythmic fiddle shuffle that kicks off Round About Way, immediately setting a classic Texas swing pace.
The heavy, somber piano chords opening Today My World Slipped Away that signal a shift into deep heartbreak.
