Devotion + Doubt

His major-label debut: thirteen songs, all by Buckner, with guests from Calexico and Giant Sand.
Richard Buckner, 1997

Devotion + Doubt has thirteen songs, all by Buckner, who sang and did the arrangements with Michael Hall; Wikipedia gives no studio or recording dates. Trouser Press's Erik Hage called it a gut-wrenching song cycle, and Robert Christgau gave it a B-minus.
