Forgot How Good It Is.......2001-07-27

I recently acquired Tracy Nelson's 1973 release POOR MAN'S PARADISE. Anyone who is a Tracy Nelson fan knows that she is the greatest R & B / Roots / Country / Rock singer of the 20th Century, and this album demostrates one of the reasons why she has a reputation as a "singer's singer". He gospel influenced love song WHATEVER I AM YOU MADE ME is my personal favorite of all the songs she recorded in her 36 year 20 album career. Other great tracks include the wistful love song WHEN I NEED YOU MOST OF ALL (with the most gorgeously understated lyrics I've ever heard) and the wonderful JACK'S WALTZ. This album also contains her first (and best) recording of her repertoire staple GOING BACK TO TENNESSEE. Well worth the price of admission; you will find yourself playing these tracks over and over again.

Splendid Russian music - religious but not liturgical.......2000-09-23

While I admit that "traditional" is responsible for a great deal of excellent music, I suspect a bit more detail is required to pique your interest in this album. Much of the music is unaccompanied mixed choir although psaltery, violin, bells and hurdy-gurdy make appearances. The sound of the songs is highly varied - some reminds you of Orthodox chant, some of Bulgarian women's choirs, etc. .... The musicianship is excellent.

The disk comes in a small book that provides an introduction to the tradition and some photos. Anyone interested in Russian religious music should hear this - it is a marvelous example of the "little tradition" and contrasts/supports the "great tradition" of the Orthodox church.
