CD Reviews

Stealing Slow
David T. Steere, Jr. | Annapolis, MD United States | 10/16/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Kate always reminds us of what the best southern music is really about. In this fusion of southern atmospherics and blues, she touches the heart as few can in shades of country, gospel, folk and pop.



UP IN WEST VIRGINIA

IN THE COLD COAL MINES

THEY GOT BLUES

MILES AND MILES OF BLUES

FROM BUFFALO TO BALTIMORE

TALK ABOUT HARD TIMES

THEY GOT BLUES

MILES AND MILES OF BLUES



This may be the best record in her distinguished discography. Kate's voice, sweet and thick as molasses, is as wonderful as ever and remains center stage with a cast of amazing musicians (including: Walt Aldridge-producer and guitars; Jim Hoke-accordion and harmonica, Larry Franklin-fiddle, Randy Kohrs-dobro, Neil Rosengarden-trumpet, Bill Huber-trombone, Ron de la Vega-cello) and a who's who of harmony singers (Maura O'Connell, Guy Clark, Verlon Thompson, Mac McAnally, and Cindy Walker). Although the blues permeate nearly every song (often in very original ways), Kate finds hope as well.



THE GOOD NEWS IS THERE'S MUSIC

TO EASE YOUR WORRIED MIND

WHEN YOU GOT BLUES

MILES AND MILES OF BLUES

AND THERE'S NOTHING LIKE A GUITAR

CRYING IN THE NIGHT

WHEN YOU GOT BLUES

MILES AND MILES OF BLUES



PEACE COMES STEALING SLOW

FALLS LIKE SILENT SNOW

SWINGS DOWN SWEET AND LOW

PEACE COMES STEALING SLOW"
At her finest !
K. Pope | Tulsa Ok | 01/10/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Kate sings the blues and swings and tells stories like only she can.

The spiritual call of the Peace Comes Stealing Slow and Lord Help the Poor and Needy are timely and strong.
