Like Ryan Adams, this guy needs a haircut and an editor -- and not necessarily in that order. As usual, IWAIM has a handful of impressive tunes -- and the odd brilliant couplet or two -- but someone needs to reign this Connor kid in a bit and enroll him in the "Less is More" school of songwriting. Otherwise, he tends to ramble. And ramble. And what's with Emmylou Harris? I've never heard her sound so extraneous, or more lost ("Landlocked Blues"). Above average, but just.
