Ryan Adams, "Ashes & Fire"

Too bad reality can't be as lovely as the world of Ryan Adams' heartbreak. Here, he transforms the site of a burned-out building into a land where lovers smell of black cherry, the breeze is sweeter than Roosevelt Pine and cats roam silent streets. But juxtapositions are the cornerstone to Adams' ample gifts as a songwriter, and a jaunty waltz feel, saloon piano and arching melody make "Ashes & Fire" hurt just right. – Nate Cavalieri, Google Play
