Hawley gets back to his roots and serenades us with this immaculate collection of tunes.
The formula is simple. Hawley's deep, rich baritone drips with sincerity on rather old-fashioned songs that balance the twang of retro '60s country and western with lushly orchestrated ballads that devastate. Unapologetically awash in old-school romanticism, I Still Want You is a love song that draws power from Hawley's tender delivery. He doesn't run a lonely hearts club on this album. Instead, his bittersweet observations on life celebrate the importance of friends, family and community. There's great strength in the delicate beauty of this album.
