Albums come along that pose questions. Some of them are interesting. Some of them are less interesting, and yet more are mundane. Corduroy Brown’s Let Me Know asks how do you take a life threatening, life altering event and find something positive in it? How do you express fear, relief, and joy, while exercising reverence for obstacles most of us are fortunate enough to not have a baseline for? How do you accomplish all of that without being preachy, or worse, cheesy?
Let Me Know answers all of these brilliantly, in a way that’s a joy to listen to. In a room of special albums, this album is still special. It comes with a sense of true humility, wonder and a kindness that’s becoming ever more rare. It’s a truly inspired, and inspiring, album.
