An Extraordinary Album

"Wow! I just discovered this extraordinary artist and album. I can't imagine what muse Circe Link connected with to produce this music, but I hope they stay connected for years to come. I'm not really into western swing revival (her dominant style), but I do have eclectic tastes, and tend to find the most inventive song-writers in any genre. By any measure - lyrics, instrumentation, expression - all of the songs on One Drop of Poison are great. And I do mean ALL. Want witty and playful? - try One Drop of Poison, Sorrow for Three, or Went and Fell in Love. Like poignant? - try Can't Make the Rain Fall Down, Downtown, or Lovely Moon. Into hard-driving? - you can't miss with Love's Train and Black the Sky. Had enough of every promising or over-hyped artist who doesn't quite measure up? - try Life is a Bitch - and every other song on this album. It will become one of your handful of absolute favorites.
