Grabbed this on vinyl this week - just getting a chance to listen now.

Only a few tracks in, but I have to say that what impresses me about dude even more than his voice is his really unique songwriting - esp. on the lyrics. I mean, the words of the opening track could have been penned by Leonard Cohen at his most midrashic:
"There will be no love that's dying here

The bird that flew in through my window
Simply lost his way
He broke his wing, I helped him heal
And then he flew away
Well the death of love is everywhere
But I won't let it be
There will be no love that's dying here for me"

and further

"The mirror that fell from the wall
Was raggedy, that's all
It rest up on a rusty nail, before it made its fall
Well the bones of love are everywhere
But I won't let it be
There will be no love that's dying here for me"

Dude rhymes "wall/all/fall" and manages to make it sound eloquent as all get out. His voice draws you in, and he has top-notch players working with him - but it's the totality of his songs that do it for me. The title track on Be Good was that way, easily - again, just a few tracks in, but he's doing it here, too.
