Routes & Branches 12/7/13

Well it seems to happen this time of year, when I'm starting to gather together all of my favorite CDs of the year, that I receive a new release that just catches my ear and immediately competes for a slot in my top ten. This time it's  Kristina Murray's debut CD "Unravelin'". Murray has been compared to Emmy Lou Harris, Tammy Wynette and Patsy Cline so I'm finding myself  liking every track which is unusual for a debut album. So we'll see where she lands in my 'Best Of the Year' list.
