Few artists craft albums as meticulously as Patty Larkin, the Boston-based alterna-folk artist who bridges the genre to pop, jazz, Celtic, and classical outposts with her adventurous arrangements and melodic structures. Working again with coproducer Bette Warner, Larkin continues to match literate storytelling with textured, roomy soundscapes built on electric and acoustic guitars, lap-steel, mandolin, piano, percussion, and more. Every note is as deliberate as a brushstroke--delicate arpeggios laid aside insinuating and angry guitars--and meant to serve her sophisticated, yet ...

I love these Narada sampler albums of New Age and World music because I discover so many new and interesting artists. 'World 2002' a compilation of World music is no exception. I discovered several artists whose work I would have had trouble finding if these samplers didn't present them. This album goes all over the globe, every continent except Australia (which is too bad, as they have some great World artists.)
In particular, ...

Ben Harper makes elegant leaps from reggae to rock to folk to funk and back in his fifth studio album. The rootsy singer-songwriter with the silken tenor isn't merely genuflecting at the altar of his musical heroes, as here he shows more quirky imagination and inventive musicianship than on any of his earlier efforts. That said, 'Diamonds on the Inside' is painted with the same brush that Bob Dylan used on 'I Shall Be Released,' but ...

Some 15 years and nearly as many albums into her career, Ani DiFranco--the original girl-power prophet and folkie punk--is still as willful as ever. Her lyrics remain poetic, polemical, and yes, occasionally maudlin; her musical explorations sound more like refinement than radical revision, but it's clear that she's still, well, evolving. Always a strikingly gifted and expressive singer and guitarist who employs her voice and guitar as both rhythmic and melodic instruments, DiFranco ...

Most artists who appeal to adult listeners tend to settle into a comfortable niche, but Lucinda Williams refuses to play it safe. Instead, her music stings like an open wound, as she continues to strip away the protective layers from her art's emotional core. Though Williams has long been prized for the naked honesty of her music, this collection is even rawer than its predecessors. From the down-and-dirty bar-band blues of 'Atonement' to the Rolling Stones-style swagger of 'Bleeding ...

Once again a Canadian perspective helps to bring out the best in American roots music. Like the Band, these three women of the Great North have taken the traditional sounds of their southern neighbor and made them uniquely their own. They inflect the acoustic intimacy of public domain tunes like 'Reuben' and 'In My Time of Dying,' modern classics like Townes Van Zandt's 'Waiting Around to Die,' and Peter Rowan's 'Midnight Moonlight,' ...

I was fortunate enough to attend the Woman's Heart II concert in Dublin, Ireland many years ago and purchased this CD and 'A Woman's Heart II' while there. The music is wonderful, a mix of beautiful songs that I find myself returning to over and over again. If you've ever been to Ireland, this music will make you remember your journey. If you've not been fortunate enough to visit that lovely land, pop this CD into your player, close ...

Joni Mitchell would go on from this '71 recording to make more popular, more ambitious, and more challenging albums, but she's never made a better one. Working with minimal accompaniment (Stephen Stills and James Taylor are two of the four sidemen), the Canadian thrush summoned an involving song cycle of romance found and lost. Though Blue is an uncommonly intimate representation, it's also astonishingly open and gracious. Songs such as 'All I Want,' 'Carey,' 'California,' and 'A Case ...

Any good singer can interpret a song, but it takes a stylist to make it his own. James Taylor is a stylist. This 20-track anthology obviously can't chronicle much more than the hits and high points of Taylor's career, but it nonetheless captures the artistic essence of a performer who's become a virtual synonym for 'singer-songwriter' since his emergence in the late '60s. A lot of ink has been spilled ruminating about Taylor's role in ...
