teddy thompson's self-produced 'upfront and down low offers distinctive versions of beloved country classics: george jones' 'she thinks i still care,' dolly parton's bittersweet 'my blue tears,' and the elvis presley chestnut 'i'm left, you're right, she's gone.' the album also features a lone thompson original, 'down low,' whose heart-on-sleeve lyrics take on added resonance in this context. all the tracks on the ablum are support by beautiful string arrangements by legendary english arranger robert kirby, renowned for his groundbreaking work with nick drake, while 'my blue tears' features strings arranged by frequent thompson cohort rufus wainwright. all the tracks on 'upfront and down low' contain commitment and musical imagination that consistently cuts to the emotional heart of the material.
