Richmond Fontaine Plays "We Used To Think The Freeway Sounded Like A River" (2009)

Link

“We Used To Think The Freeway Sounded Like A River” is the eighth album from acclaimed Oregon act Richmond Fontaine. Produced once again by JD Foster (Calexico, Nancy Sinatra), the album sees Willy Vlautin’s lyrical tales of the desperate lives of ordinary people backed by the band’s trademark alt-country sound. While there’s a literary quality to the writing here, the songs are interspersed with sympathetic instrumental passages. The single “You Can Move Back Here” is also included.
