    While A Folk Set Apart doesn’t represent his best work, it still makes sense in his canon. The alternate imagination he’s offered fans is yet another sturdy exercise in self disassembly and songcraft, which Cass McCombs can’t help but nail.

    Sessions and collaborations abound, finally collected here. [Feb 2016, p. 104]

    As is typical with this decidedly atypical songwriter, the humor is wry (sometimes morbidly so), the observations astute, and the glimmers of earnestness disarming.
