This first posthumous release of Wolf's material was compiled and produced by the singer/songwriter's longtime collaborator and friend, Nina Gerber. Best known for the title track, which Wolf composed and recorded partially in a hospital room during her final days, The Wind Blows Wild consists mainly of unreleased studio tracks, as well as selections culled from radio and concert performances. Some of the songs feel less polished than her previous work, but what could be perceived as flaws turn out to be an unexpected gift. It's the rawness of these tracks that give a better sense of Wolf's warm inflection and Gerber's instinctive accompaniment. --Alexandra Russell

Kate Wolf recorded the title song of this album in her hospital room during her final, fatal illness. Heard today, the song (The Wind Blows Wild) is haunting, evocative, visionary, and a little melancholy--sheer poetry that will make you miss Kate Wolf even if you've never heard her before. Other outstanding cuts here include The Rising of the Moon, Old Jerome, and a studio version of perhaps her most famous song, Give Yourself to Love. This is a lovely album from a real artist, and truly deserves your attention.
