The second album from Melbourne’s Cash Savage and the Last Drinks is an impressive and immensely moving record. Cash’s profounding affecting and vivid storytelling is matched with soulful musical arrangements that span country, blues and gospel styles. The instrumental range of the record is broader than before, with strings, horn section and a choir soaring in harmony with the band.
