CD ReviewsJoan's best since Relish! Robert Haven | Eugene, Oregon United States | 09/12/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "I pretty much like everything that Joan does, but probably like many other fans, I've been waiting for a release that returns to the sonic quality of Relish. Little Wild One might be that CD. I'm finding myself hooked on listening to it, and the more I do, the more I like it. The fresh new songs are all worthy of Joan's vocals, with basic instrumentation that sounds very good -- usually a couple guitars, bass, and a keyboard -- some electric and some acoustic. There are some wonderful lyrics, good melodies, nice sounds, and Joan's rich and perfect-pitch voice is beautiful from beginning to end. I'm always hoping to re-experience the mind blowing impact that Joan's singing had on me when I first heard "Ladder" and "St. Theresa" and other songs on "Relish". Joan doesn't belt out the soul like that, but I feel a lot more life in these recordings than in some of her recent R&B albums. This is fine stuff -- more mature, I think. Thanks for the great listening, Joan! I also recommend checking out Joan doing some fine vocal performances with Phil Lesh and Friends on Phil Lesh & Friends - Live at the Warfield Theater" What a great album S. Elliott | Denver, CO USA | 09/12/2008 (4 out of 5 stars) "I am a huge John Hiatt fan. What's that got to do with this album you ask? Joan opened for John Hiatt in Boulder a couple nights ago. All I knew from her was her first album with the song "One of Us." (You know, the theme to "Joan of Arcadia") Anyway, she blew me away, as well as everyone else in the audience. (One even shouted she should be president, but I digress) I went to the table and immediately bought this album, and wished I had the income to purchase the rest. As far as this album goes, my favorite track is "Cathedrals" or "Rodeo". She has a terrific voice, and, for the first time, I was sorry when the opener for John Hiatt had to leave the stage. (On a side note, JH's concert was pretty darn good.)" SOULFUL EARTHY - VOCALLY SOARING Joseph A. Kengor | Youngstown, OH USA | 09/25/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "I read about Ms Osborne's newest record in the paper a couple weeks ago. I ran out on my lunch hour to buy it along with Lindsey Buckingham's newest also. Comparitively, I've been listening to Joan's alot more. It's warmer, more mature, and the instrumentation and production is much better. Mr. Buckingham's sounds claustrophobic. Ms. Osborne's voice is the star here - soaring and dipping like a hawk on the wing - her vocals are pure and clear but she can sing with an edge too. The songs are strong - she references New York City and its neighborhoods in many of the tunes. She wrote or co-wrote most of them. The instrumentation is perfectly compliments the tunes. Enough variation to make each tune sound different. I especially like the electric 12 string guitar on the second track "Sweeter Than The Rest". My overall favorite track is "Light of This World".
Joan is the best female vocalist in her age group. I am waiting for the postman to deliver the Phil Lesh & Friends recording with Joan singing Greatful Dead tunes - that's got to be wild. Anyway, this disc gets a big thumbs up from this reviewer who's been listening to music for close to 50 years. I can't wait to buy a copy for my 31 year old daughter, she'll love it." |
