My Morning Jacket’s latest album, Evil Urges, conjures up a brew of familiar sounds yet still manages to elevate the trajectory of Jim James and company’s aim. The title track opens the album and you’ll have to hear what sounds like a Prince imitation/homage to believe it. It set me back a bit at first, but once I got used to James’ falsetto blending with the groove the rest of MMJ lays down I settled in for the ride. Have you ever imagined what it would sound like if The Bee Gees were a little bit country and a little less asshole? Me neither, but thanks to the song “Thank You Too!” I can now say I’ve not only heard an attempt but it didn’t make me vomit in my mouth. Read more of: My Morning Jacket: “Evil Urges”
