Editorial Reviews
musician
"Shoots the arrow straight to the heart. A wonderful singer and musician." - Pete Seeger

Product Description
Judy Gorman 's songs are blues and folk rooted , original songs with smokey vocals and pepper pungent lyrics. Affirmation, struggle, transformation and connection of each and all of us - these are the themes of Gorman's songs.

"Songs about women and working folks troubles, songs about lovers and triumph and struggle, Songs about dreamers and what dreams reveal, songs about music so real that it heals..." ( excerpt from I'm Heartsick and Tired of Calling Up People and Asking If They'd Like to Hire a Singer by Judy Gorman.) These songs get their wings from her vivid imagination and their roots from the folk, blues, jazz and gospel music she has been surrounded by all her life. Her earliest memories are of hearing the albums of Billie Holiday, Woody Guthrie, Paul Robeson and Leadbelly.

"Analog Girl in a Digital World is a rich mix of moods, themes, and musical influences. Love songs here include the rock & roll goodbye of "Parachutes", aching loss and anguish in the ballad "Prisoner of Your Own Disguise", the joyful, jazzy "In This Love" and the Brazilian beat of "And I Am". "Firedancer" is a deep spirit song accompanied only by percussion. "One World" depicts women working on the global assembly line of deadly, dead-end jobs and their planning together to take back their lives because "people (are) more precious than gold". "Roots and Wings is swirling Latin rhythm and visionary lyrics of human possibility and connection. "Superman's Warning" is a blues rock parable on the threat of ecological disaster. "Get Up Nine" is about a waking nightmare transformed by courage and faith. The album's opening song, "She Don't Slip", is an anthem for young girls who refuse to become wallpaper when they become women - like this "Analog Girl in a Digital World".
