A welcome additon to American folk

"Wth this album, Greg Greenway shows himself extraordinarily flexible. His version of American Folk encompasses the difficult issues of Ireland and South Africa as well as those of the States. The combination of Greenway's clear melodic vocals and the smooth harmonies of his back-up singers gives listeners a layered experience of the music--and the issues that underpin it. Just as you can't leave a Greg Greenway concert thinking nothing of the way you vote, so his album encourages self-reflection: not just the emotional kind that most song-writers encourage, but intellectual as well. In these days of sound-bytes and micro-ideas, this is a really good thing."
