Tindersticks - Travelling Light
One of the most beautiful songs from an album that completely blew me away the first time I listened to it. And that’s no mean feat considering I was standing at a listening post in a high street chain music shop at the time. Tindersticks would go on to make a regular habit of dropping heart-warming duets into their albums from this point on: this collaboration between the deep, gravelly tones of Stuart Staples, and the countrified cords of Carla Torgerson of The Walkabouts is still possibly the best of them, although it’s a high class field to lead.
