Claude says:Ryan Adams' 2011 turn toward country-rock lushness with Ashes & Fire landed in your rotation late that November—a single night where you cycled through the whole thing, letting the album's melancholic Americana and widescreen production settle in without sticking around long enough to become a regular. It's the kind of record that feels complete in one sitting, especially when you're hitting songs like "Come Home" and the acoustic version of "Dirty Rain" back to back.
