Flying Burrito Brothers - Building Fires
Review by Britney
Building Fires, the latest album by Flying Burrito Brothers, is a masterpiece of country rock music. The band's signature sound is on full display, with soaring harmonies, twangy guitars, and catchy melodies that will have listeners tapping their feet and singing along.
The album kicks off with the upbeat and infectious "Just Can't Be" and continues with the heartfelt ballad "Wishin' and Hopin'". Each track showcases the band's versatility, from the rollicking "Wildfire" to the haunting and introspective "The Last Time".
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Building Fires", a song that encapsulates the band's ethos of living life to the fullest and embracing the unknown. The lyrics are poignant and relatable, and the melody is infectious.
