About
Salutations is the eighth solo studio album by American musician Conor Oberst, released on March 17, 2017 on Nonesuch Records. Ten of the tracks originally appeared on Ruminations in acoustic form. - Wiki
Comparisons between Salutations and Ruminations are inevitable, obviously, but they really are radically different records. Even in its softer moments, Ruminations has built-in urgency to it — a sense that the songs couldn't wait to be perfected — while Salutations feels more fleshed-out and finished, not to mention far more generous in its portions. Neither is superior, necessarily, given that the battle of rawness vs. polish is never easily settled. In fact, it turns out both approaches serve these songs well. This remains some of Oberst's most personal and reflective material, written in a harsh winter after a health scare, so it was worth letting the songs breathe for a few months before revisiting them. They still sound full of life, and still feel ragged at times, but they shine in new and different ways. - NPR
