Joanna Newsom uses Have One on Me's two-hour spread to travel from Appalachian folk to big-city pop, with stops at country, soul, and gospel along the way. It's a dense journey, not just as a whole, but from song to song. Over 11 minutes, "Have One on Me" begins with jazzy harp stylings and some of Newsom's most polished vocals, returns to Milk-Eyed Mender's rural whimsy, passes through a marching band, and lands in a British folk reverie. "Kingfisher," a chamber pop fantasia that plays like a condensed version of Ys, "'81"'s winsome country-pop, and the dazzlingly beautiful "Go Long" are other standouts. At its best, Have One on Me is an impressive album with the intimacy of a live performance. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
