Featuring songs recorded during the Mission Bell sessions in 2010, Amos Lee's
2012 EP As the Crow Flies works as a nice low-key addition to Mission Bell. Much
like that album, As the Crow Flies is an earthy, heartfelt, and soulful set of
cuts that showcase Lee's unique mix of singer/songwriter folk, country, and R&B.
In fact, in many ways the EP is a bit more immediately engaging than its
full-length predecessor, with Lee coming up with a number of catchy, melodic,
and still deeply personal songs. To these ends, we get the Hall &
Oates-influenced "Simple Things" and the rambling '60s-centric "Say Goodbye."
Similarly compelling are such tracks as the poignant midtempo ballad "Mama Sail
to Me" and the bluesy "There I Go Again." Ultimately, with songs that are as
good as anything on Mission Bell, As the Crow Flies is a must-hear for Lee fans.
