3.0 good | Robbit | May 8th 16 | Neko Case's 1997 debut THE VIRGINIAN is an engaging collection of originals & cover songs that is a bit
more playful, raucous and freewheeling than her later work. Her band, The Boyfriends, have a refreshingly
retro sound that walks the line between traditional country and rockabilly.
When combined with the retro sounds of her own material, THE VIRGINIAN often feels like a tribute album to
Neko's influences. It's playful and engaging mood is very charming and somewhat compensates for the fact
that most of these songs aren't all that extraordinary. And while this album may lack the moodier
introspective side of her songwriting that has captivated so many, Neko is clearly having a good time
here, as should you.
