I think it's their best attempts to try folk rock in their entire career.
Rolling Stone magazine got it wrong as usual and said it just "didn't work".

Also very good is "Sister Morphine", which captures the confusion so clearly, and the guitar and piano distortions are fantastic.

Probably my favourite album they've done.
Wild Horses is the highlight for myself. 5 minutes of pure, raw, sincere emotion.
