Ed Bruce - Ebb Tide

Review by Jayni Bloch

Ebb Tide by Ed Bruce is an album that showcases the artist's unique blend of country, folk, and blues. The album features ten tracks, all of which are written by Bruce himself, and each song tells a story that is both poignant and relatable.

The album's title track, "Ebb Tide," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its haunting melody and melancholic lyrics. Bruce's voice is deep and soulful, perfectly complementing the song's somber mood.

Other standout tracks on the album include "The Last Cowboy Song," a tribute to the dying breed of cowboys, and "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys," a classic country anthem that Bruce co-wrote with his longtime collaborator, Patsy Bruce.
