Music Review: American Routes Compilation
There's routes and there's roots. I’ve heard every one of the American Routes shows that this two-cd set excerpts – at least twice - and I can truthfully say, I never turned off any one of them. Sure, there were times that I wasn’t a particular fan of the spotlight guests, but I swear, Nick Spitzer’s narration could make an interesting case of paint drying....
