{"product_id":"goodbye-normal-street","title":"Goodbye Normal Street","description":"On the cusp of breaking out of the Oklahoma\/Texas corridor, Turnpike Troubadours have turned inward, hunkering down and honing their hard country on Goodbye Normal Street. Where their 2010 album Diamonds \u0026amp; Gasoline was anchored on several songs with a rock \u0026amp; roll bent -- including a stomping cover of John Hartford's \"Long Hot Summer Days\" -- Goodbye Normal Street gets into the dust and dirt of Texan country, the songs of Evan Felker often recalling those of Steve Earle or Townes Van Zandt. The Troubadours have a relaxed, broken-in virtuosity -- they're as comfortable kicking up the dirt on \"Before the Devil Knows We're Dead\" as they are laying back with a summery groove on \"Southeastern Son,\" jerking out tears on the sad \"Gone, Gone, Gone,\" or rocking \u0026amp; rolling a Cajun-inspired groove on \"Quit While I'm Ahead\" -- and this road-tested musicality perfectly suits the sturdiness of Felker's songs, which never have a wasted word or melodic line. This understated nature can mean that Goodbye Normal Street doesn't grab hold upon its first listen but it is, as they say, a grower, the kind of record that slowly reveals its depths and eventually seems like an album that you've always known by heart. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41908110917797,"sku":"794504074833","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/files\/db5b9e385b69786bb35c7239966992e3.jpg?v=1780753477","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/en-au\/products\/goodbye-normal-street","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
