|  | Beautiful Kurt Nilsen Album |  |
Rise to the Occasion is by far my favorite Kurt Nilsen album. The songs all fit together and flow seemlessly. It's quiet, mostly acoustic, the melodies are catchy and his voice is flawless (as usual). I like his other stuff, but this is the first one I can actually call beautiful.

For anyone who is put off, as I was, by the idea of Kurt doing country, and the picture of him in a cowboy hat (which I don't happen to think is his best look), rest assured this is pure Kurt with a little pedal steel added in. If anything the songs are maybe a little more subdued and mellow than we usually get from him. The duet with Willie Nelson is very fine. Not my favorite Kurt album, but definitely an honorable addition to his oeuvre. I just don't understand why he's not a huge hit in the States.
