Shelter (Lone Justice Album)
''Shelter'' is the second album by American country rock band Lone Justice, released in November 1986. Critical reception Jon Pareles, music critic for ''The New York Times'', gave high praise to McKee's singing and the band's musicianship, but described the album as something of a disappointment in that "the band's songwriting has grown weaker": whereas the songs of the debut album were filled with "down-to-earth details that make country music hit home", those of ''Shelter'' "are much vaguer – they're about abstracted emotions rather than recognizable people".
