Karen Elson "The Ghost Who Walks"

100 Years From Now



I love this. Elson has found her place in music and it's excellent. A folksy otherworldly type of music it is the America that I want to visit. My favourite song thus far is "100 Years From Now". It has an old time air about it  and feels like it could be heard in some half empty run down vaudeville bar  full of all sorts of  characters who live on the fringe of life.


"The Ghost Who Walks", the title track is also gorgeous. It makes me think more of dusty vast land, drinking whiskey on a porch, cowboys, and just a world so far from the daily life in wet Ireland!
