Limited vinyl LP pressing. 2015 release, the 12th studio album from the singer/songwriter. Picking Up The Pieces is a bookend to Jewel's Pieces of You debut album which has sold more than 12 million copies. The album is released to coincide with Jewel's memoir, Never Broken: Songs Are Only Half The Story. Jewel originally hired Paul Worley to produce the album, but he backed out about a week before rehearsals insisting she produced it herself, suggesting she will thank him later for the idea. Jewel wanted to capture a live sound for the album. Portions of it were recorded during a set at The Standard in Nashville, while others were captured during a live performance in front of friends in Nashville's historic RCA Studio A. They were done in one take, with no overdubs, no layering tracks, no auto-tune or tricks, according to Jewel. She describes the overall sound as minimal, focusing on the singing, lyric, and emotion. Love Used to Be 5:41, A Boy Needs a Bike 4:10, Everything Breaks 4:01, Family Tree 3:36, It Doesn't Hurt Right Now (Featuring Rodney Crowell) 4:35, His Pleasure Is My Pain 5:42, Here When Gone 4:44, The Shape of You 4:15, Plain Jane 3:49, Pretty Faced Fool 3:51, Nicotine Love 6:33, Carnivore 4:20, My Father's Daughter (Featuring Dolly Parton) 3:25, Mercy 3:46
