Genre: Country
Places I remember: Virgin Megastore Dubai Mall
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: I Put My Ring Back On
Gear costume: Iceland is spookily good, We Travelled So Far and Zephyr will always remind me of driving in the Tiida with Jacky from Al Ain to Dubai.
Active compensatory factors: Because of that association with driving around in sunny Al Ain, it's my favourite studio album by MCC.
It starts off with four terrific songs but things then get a little too hushed and maudlin for a bit (something David Crosby also suffers from periodically). Iceland gets the mix right before a strong close.
It's got live stuff, studio gems, and beautiful cover versions of Mick Jagger's Party Doll and John Lennon's Grow Old Along With Me. It is superb!
