Alone Together Sessions

by Hayes Carll

Overview

Hayes Carll took advantage of the downtime provided by the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 to record Alone Together Sessions, a collection of new versions of ten old songs supplemented by a cover of Lefty Frizzell's "That's the Way Love Goes." Carll dug through his back pages, recording songs as old as "Arkansas Blues" (dating from 2002) and as new as "Times Like These" (a tune from 2019), coming up with a collection that emphasizes his leathery writing and rough-hewn persona. Like the title suggests, this isn't quite a solo affair. Ray Wylie Hubbard comes aboard to joke his way through "Drunken Poets Dream," Carll's wife Allison Moorer harmonizes on several songs, and Darrell Scott provides instrumental support throughout. The result is appealingly intimate: the slightly ragged edges add humor, warmth, and earned sentiment to Carll's casual touch. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
