Jim Basnight
Recovery Room
Precedent Records
What I like about this so much is the versatility of the music. Basnight tries everything from R&B on his cover of Stories' “Brother Louie,” to the jangle pop of “Miss America” and “Look Inside,” to mellow power pop.
The lyrics are about adult relationships, most of them troubled in some way, but they’re never dark and never try to be more than they are. They’re just relationship songs.
Basnight is one of the best power pop musicians out there, and this album is another in a long line of great ones by him.
