Unlike some other great singers (ahem, Eddie Vedder), Robin Pecknold says he loves to sing, and sing he does on many tracks here. On the whole, I wish that there were some more songs with tempo to them. But tracks like White Winter Hymnal, Tiger Mountain Peasant Song and Oliver James make this album a real pleasure. If they ever hook up with a producer that brings some real energy to the songs they just might make a truly classic CD. This comes close.
