  1. 9.0 |   Slant Magazine

    The album is a reckoning with his own prickly memory, and it's a bounty of weathered emotion and hard-won wisdom

  2. 9.0 |   Uncut

    Age seems to have deepened his poetic faculties, these rootsy narratives scarred by experience, but all the richer for it. Crowell's best since The Houston Kid. Print edition only

  3. 8.7 |   Paste Magazine

    For a song cycle that turns around death and mortality, Rodney Crowell’s Close Ties is a decidedly jubilant affair
