Moments Worth Listening For
The gentle, rhythmic hiccup in Jackson's voice during the chorus of In the Middle of a Heartache.
Roy Clark's clean, melodic guitar fills that weave through the string arrangements on Is It Wrong.
The way the backing vocals provide a soft, pillowy cushion for the vulnerable delivery on A Little Bitty Tear.
