    Following a six-year hiatus at the end of the '90s Rodney Crowell has returned in the 21st century with his formidable skills arcing skyward. The critically acclaimed Houston Kid (2001) and Fate's Right Hand (2003) were arguably his deepest most fully developed records in a long glittering career.

Immediately following is "The Obscenity Prayer" written from the point of view of a hypocritical right-wing pleasure seeker whose positions are not only indefensible they are at worst obscene. Conversely the Zen-like advice in "Dancin' Circles Round the Sun" is a tough country rocker with killer rockabilly guitar lines by Stewart Smith and Hammond B3 grooves by John Hobbs. It is a testament to personal responsibility and awakening that exhorts and admonishes but never preaches. There is great tenderness here as well such as in the acoustically driven "Ignorance Is the Enemy" with its prayer-like cadence and spoken-word vocals by Emmylou Harris and John Prine. "Glasgow Girl" is as fine a country-rock love song as has been written in recent years. The album closes with " Columbia
