Iron and Wine - The Shepard's Dog

From old 1980's favorites to my last record purchase - Iron and Wine. Iron and Wine is the recording name of Sam Beam, a singer/songwriter with a soft but eerie kind of voice and intelligent, poetic lyrics. I cannot get the song "Boy with the Coin" out of my head... it could be the rhythmic hand clapping, the deep lyrics or the darkness that's kind of rolling along underneath the tune. It's mesmerizing.
