Two talented songwriters lay their pens down for a cover album that's one of the best folk records in recent memory. Gretchen Peters with Tom Russell One to the Heart, One to the Head (Scarlet Letter/Frontera) You may have never heard of Gretchen Peters, but if you ve flipped on a country radio station sometime in the past decade, you ve surely heard her work. In addition to writing Independence Day, the song that catapulted Martina McBride into country superstardom, Peters has also written for Patty Loveless, George Strait and numerous other Nashville giants. In addition to this day job, Peters has a singing career of her own, releasing seven solo-folk/country albums over the past 13 years. But before moving to Nashville in the late 1980s, Peters lived in Boulder, Colorado; it seems even after all these years, Peters mind and heart is still set on her old stomping grounds. On One to the Heart, One to the Head, she turns her gaze back to the American West with a collection of songs celebrating it's land, it's mythology and it's inhabitants. Texas country singer Tom Russell joins her on the journey. Russell, no songwriting slouch himself, has been recorded by Johnny Cash, Dave Alvin and Nanci Griffith, to name just a few. Their two voices Peters pure-and-clear soprano, Russell's whiskey-soaked rasp somehow manage to mesh wonderfully, creating a sound as raw and beautiful as a desert landscape, and the songs they ve chosen for the album bring to mind Marty Robbins, John Steinbeck and the cowboy songs collected by John Lomax. Largely a cover album, One to the Heart, One to the Head has only two original songs on the record (one penned by Russell and an instrumental track composed by Barry Walsh). However, it manages to sound like an album full of new material, thanks to the fresh take Peters and Russell have on the songs. The supporting musicians, including accordionist Joel Guzman and Walsh, former keyboardist for Waylon Jennings, create an atmosphere so lifelike it almost seems like you re listening to them performing in some dusty New Mexico cantina. Though the material Peters and Russell chose for this project ranges from Bob Dylan ("Billy 4") to Townes Van Zandt ("Snowin on Raton") to Mary McCaslin ("Prairie in the Sky") to Bonnie Raitt ("Sweet and Shiny Eyes"), surprisingly, the best song on the album is their version of Tom Dundee's These Cowboys Born Out of Their Time. It's been recorded by various folkies through the years, but Peters and Russell deliver the best version by far. The song itself epitomizes the theme of the entire album, thanks to lyrics such as, the range has been settled for years now / the old wranglers passed on with their kind / But every now and again, you run into these men / These cowboys born out of their time. It's simultaneously a stunning eulogy to a lost world and a tribute to those modern-day men struggling to hold on to a past rapidly becoming obsolete. The frontier may be long dead, but Peters and Russell sure do an excellent job of making it come alive again, however briefly, in song.

Perfect summer blanket for hot sleepers
Color: Olive Green, Size: Oversized King
Oh my, we love this blanket so much. It's soft it's warm in our 65° bedroom at night I steal sometimes get too hot underneath of it and I have to uncover but it's not as bad as the one I had replaced it with which is going to be our winter blanket this is going to be our summer blanket. Can't say enough about how soft and cozy and comfortable this is it's not a heavy blanket which is not what we wanted anyways and when I make the bed it looks very nice and not puffy.

Solid Affordable Duvet Insert Comforter
Color: White, Size: Queen
This is a great affordable all-season duvet insert comforter. There are multiple tie downs to attach to the duvet cover, not just the 4 corners. It is soft and washes well. It's plenty warm in the cold but might be too much during the hotter months. I live in San Diego where the average yearly temperature is at least 70 degrees. During the majority of the year this comforter ended up being too warm for me. I've used it for nearly 2 years but just replaced it with the much thinner Bedsure cooling comforter. If you're a hot sleeper or live in a warm climate, I'd recommend that product. This is still a good comforter, just not for me.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This comforter is absolutely amazing! It feels like something you'd find in a luxury hotel—soft, lightweight, airy, and incredibly comfortable. It has quickly become one of the best purchases I've made. The quality exceeded my expectations, and it's perfect for staying cozy without feeling too heavy. My kids love it so much that they're constantly trying to steal it from me! If you're looking for a comfortable, high-quality comforter, I highly recommend this one. You won't be disappointed!
