    I was excited to give this album a listen after all the hype it received, but it ended up being a little too mellow for me. I found it dull. Perhaps it's just not my type of genre.

    Love's Crushing Diamond is a title that captures the hope and hardship in these songs, and the album's kindness and calmness make it the musical embodiment of a friend whose shoulder is ready to cry on at a moment's notice.

    It seals the chapter of Jordan’s late teens, early twenties, and it lands up being his finest work by a country mile.

    Love's Crushing Diamond is restful, woven, baroque. [Feb 2014, p.89]
