Gillian Welch seems since then to deal with a writer's block of an unprecedented scale and yet, nothing on her fifth album. This is not only annoying for the fans of Gillian Welch and her music, but also for her musical partner Dave Rawlings, who was clearly present in all plates of Gillian Welch. On the musical break forced by Rawlings is now an end with the release of A Friend Of A Friend of Dave Rawlings Machine.
