"Live: Return of the Storyteller - his third live album and nineteenth overall - plays like a masterclass by one man with a guitar and a freewheeling imagination. Threading his husky-voiced phrasing through a likable cosmic cowboy manner, he invites you on a tour of tunes humorous (""Big Finish,"" and the have-meets- have-not ""In Between Jobs""), Proustian (""Play a Train Song,"" ""Too Soon To Tell,"" and the lump-in-the-throat snapshot of John Prine on ""Handsome John"") and heart-worn (""Like a Force of Nature,"" ""The Very Last Time,"" ""Roman Candles""). As the fifteen-song set unfolds, you can feel a tangible bond building between Snider and his fans. - While the album captures what Snider laughingly calls his ""second tour - because I went out on the road in '94 and never went home until the pandemic"" - it acts as both a summing up of a thirty-year career and a look ahead." Big Finish, [Col. Bruce Hampton Ret.], Turn Me Loose, [East Nashville], Play A Train Song, [Old Man Shakes Fist At Sky], Too Soon To Tell, Like A Force Of Nature, [John Prine], Handsome John, [Hard Luck Love Song], Just Like Old Times, [Speakneck Speedball], Roman Candles, The Very Last Time, Sail On My Friend, [Being Outdoors], Ballad Of The Devil’s Backbone Tavern, Alright Guy, [Free Bird], [Sock Water], Just Like Overnight, [Alan Greenspan], In Between Jobs, [Where Will I Go], Working On A Song, Opening Statement
