Amazon.com This Canadian folk singer finally found a way to U.S. radio with "Wondering Where the Lions Are" in 1979, reaching number 21 on the pop charts. By the late '70s, Cockburn had been changing his music to meet the times. Tired of the quiet, fingerpicking approach, he explored third-world rhythms, added synthesizer, solid drums, and matched them with his spiritual and political concerns. His voice surprisingly has always sounded natural in all these different contexts and he would only get better throughout the '80s. But it's here where the seeds were planted. Tracks such as "Creation Dream" and "Northern Lights" benefit from his open-minded approach. --Rob O'Connor Similar CDs

CD ReviewsWonderful!Wonderful!Wonderful! flowny | Fort Ann, Vermont | 05/17/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "I have all Bruce Cockburn's albums (except his mid 80's stuff) and this is one of my favorites from him and in general. His music has developed over the years and this may be his peak! Cockburn incorporates a full band to bring his music to a new level. He had previously used a band on a few albums before this, but this is the best one from the 70's "band" era. If you enjoy this album you should investigate Erik Cerame's "In The Light of the Morning", which is another fine album." Wondering Where the Lions Are mskarmar | ocean view, de United States | 08/24/2001 (4 out of 5 stars) "This 1979 album is timeless. It does not sound like 1979 at all. Cockburn's acoustic guitar playing is understated yet beautiful. The songs don't necessarily stand out, yet, when the cd is over, I just play it again.... Also, it contains in my opinion his most enjoyable song:'Wondering Where the Lions Are'. I first heard about Bruce Cockburn in the early 80's when I purchased 'Stealing Fire' (****). I don't like his politics and thus did not buy anything else (political lyrics seemed to overshadow the music). I then heard his playing on 'The Best of Columbia Radio,Vol II' and decided to try his newer material. I purchased 1994's 'Dart to the Heart'(*****) and was mildly surprised; he had topped 'Stealing Fire'! The music on 'Dart' is beatiful pop! That finally led me to 'Dancing in the Dragon's Jaws' after I heard 'Wondering where the lions are' on the radio and had to have the song. I was not dissappointed and you won't be either... Musically, 'Dancing' and 'Dart' are his best."
