 Rating:  - ...returns to her roots with belated Relish follow-up...I'm probably the wrong person to be writing this. Why? Well, for me, Joan Osborne is the greatest female voice of the last twenty years. It's been an interesting, sometimes infuriating journey as I've followed her career, never knowing where she's going to end up next, but every trip has had something memorable to file away in my box of memories. It's been 13 years since Relish hit the Top 10 on both sides of the Atlantic, spawning the huge hit single "One of Us", written by written by Eric Bazilian of The Hooters fame, and later covered by Prince on his Emancipation album.

Vocally, Joan is simply enchanting and seems to sing from the heart rather than the vocal chords. Lyrically, the songs are not literary masterpieces by a long shot, but once again they shine in their directness. LWO comes across as a love declaration of sorts to Joan's New York City, Brooklyn more precisely, and most of the songs are suffused with delicate melancholy, especially Cathedrals (can't get it out of my head!), Little Wild One, To The One I Love and Daddy-O. If you liked Ladder and Lumina from Relish, than you should love this one too... Interspersed among the smouldering ballads are perkier ... Read More: |
