Smither's cosmic blues are on full display in Hundred Dollar Valentine, a brilliant amalgam made of equal parts past, present and future.
It is music that traces its roots back deep into tradition, anchors its rhythms and textures in today, and reaches forward into the future, asking the gig questions - why am I here? And he does it all with six strings, an insistent, understated groove and a sly wink - letting you know that we may all enter and leave this world alone, but that don't mean we can't have a good time while we're here.
