Gentle Spirit by Jonathan Wilson is easily one of my favorite records of the last few years. It’s one of those things that’s so good that you want to only selectively tell people about it, for fear they will burst your bubble and you will realize you’ve been dreaming, or were deluded, or just drunk and high. The record sprawls, meaning it’s all over the place, which oftentimes doesn’t work, but it does here because it retains a clarity of adventure. I like music that has a lot of spaces in between, and this does.
