    Post Tropical’s lush horn arrangements, rare but welcome returns to guitar fiddling and overall sense of restraint keep it warm, woozy and with one toe still in the folk realm.

    Post Tropical should gain McMorrow plenty of new fans, and it certainly won’t lose him any.

    While there was always an arctic edge to McMorrow--for which he has his ghostly falsetto at least partly to thank--Post Tropical only deepens the powerful sense of cold and chill that cloaks his work.
