Better Check Your Ears

This week, we continue our month-long look back at 2015 by digging into some albums that our community and staff reviewers think deserved more attention. Leading the pack this week is some fine live-in-concert Aussie Americana from Neil Finn & Paul Kelly, ass-kicking country from Sarah Shook, ripping roots-rock from Western Star, and infectious old-timey “blues” from the fine folks at the Rough Guide. (If you can call it blues.) If you don’t fall for one of these records, you may not have any ears.
