Spacedust & Ocean Views, Anders Osborne

Spacedust & Ocean Views, Anders Osborne, 2016, :58

★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆

I picked this for its intriguing combo of Louisiana-themed song titles and Swedish artist.  Quite good modern blues-pop.  Osborne has a pleasant, strong voice.  Favorite tracks: "Life Don't Last That Long," "Lafayette."
