Lost Together was easily the best Blue Rodeo album to date.
Hit the random button on the disc player and no matter where the laser touches down, you're assured a worthwhile listening experience.
Blue Rodeo have built a fortress on the foundation of their previous three outings.
The straight pop song "Flying" and ballads "Already Gone" and the epic title track offer added depth and maturity without rehashing previous successes.
"Willin' Fool" and "Angels" tackle the progressive elements of Blue Rodeo's second album Diamond Mine and sharpen them to a manic, cutting edge.
"Fools Like You" spits out a defense of native rights, Greg Keelor doing his best outraged-Bob Dylan impression.
