guitar and songwriting genius, richard thompson plugs in for his first electric album since 2003. filled with 14 songs of stories of loss and betrayal, the album also holds one of thompson's most overtly political songs to date, 'dad's gonna kill me,' told from the perspective of a nervous young soldier stationed in baghdad (abbreviated as 'dad' in the song). when asked why he chose to plug in again, thompson replied (tongue in cheek as usual), "i tend to organise my writing into piles, and the electric pile was becoming especially big, so that's the one i chose to go to".
