David Olney

[Carl Abraham Zimring]

While prepping for tonight's broadcast, I'm listening to some new
releases.  From what little I've heard of it, David Olney's Through a
Glass Darkly is looking like a contender for next year's best-of list. 
This record blends excellent Townes Van Zandt-styled songs (including
one TVZ cover) with subtle arrangements incorporating strings, electric
guitar, piano, oboe, and other disparate instruments.  It's a marvelous
album.
