Moments Worth Listening For
The dusty, cinematic opening of El Camino where the Calexico influence immediately grounds the album in the Southwest.
Willie Nelson's weathered baritone entering on Clear Blue Eyes, creating a generational bridge of outlaw country and modern soul.
The swelling, gospel-tinged climax of Windows Are Rolled Down that feels like a physical release of tension.
