Richard Buckner - Bloomed LP

Spin magazine described Buckner as "equal parts Bay Area bohemian and dust bowl traditionalist" and named Bloomed one of it's best albums of 1994, while Pitchfork wrote, "It's a traditional outsider-country record in the lineage of Townes Van Zandt. Buckner's voice is all honey and oak, his guitar style elaborately twanging, his constant subject matter heartache."
