Product note

It is always refreshing to hear a roots-based group perform an original set, and the Jayhawks do not disappoint. TOMORROW THE GREEN GRASS, as indicated by the hopeful title, brings it all back home to simple pleasures, radiant down-home joys and universal fears. It is apparent from the initial acoustic strums that this is an album that concentrates on music, not trends.
This Minnesota-based band combines the high lonesome aspects of bluegrass with the rough-edged, pining soulfulness of Burrito Brothers/Gram Parsons country-rock and the spirit of modern rock. The Jayhawks bind it all together with off-centre harmonies, infectiously strong melodies and a powerful narrative sensibility. Whether the subject is suicide, unabashed love, hopelessness, child abuse or the unbridled love the band has for Victoria Williams (who is married to Jayhawk Mark Olson), it is presented with spunk and verve.
Sometimes sounding vaguely R.E.M.-ish, the tracks often portray a pained passion. "I'd Run Away", sung by a sweet voice and featuring synths instead of fiddles, could well pass for a Beatles tune, and the band furnishes it with proper grit and soul. "Miss Williams' Guitar" crashes with waves of shimmering, jangly guitar. And a left-field cover of Grand Funk Railroad's "Bad Time" is a rollicking treasure.
With TOMORROW THE GREEN GRASS, American Recordings has, once again, released a collection of heart-and-soul-felt songs by an American band worth a listen.
