CD Reviews

Capturing It All. Perfect.

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Having searched at length for the perfect compilation of Joan Armatrading's work to add to my collection, I hit the jackpot with this CD. Firstly, any compilation would HAVE to contain both "Love and Affection" and "Willow", which in my opinion are two of the most beautiful songs ever penned. I was looking for a compilation containing other songs in a similar mood to these gems. Overall, this CD showcases every mood of Joan Armatrading's work:- soothing, slinky, blue-sy, quietening. Other favorites on this CD are Woncha Come on Home, Friends, Somebody Who Loves You, Tall In the Saddle.
Joan Armatrading is truly one of the most under-rated songwriters of recent times. The combination of her off-beat lyrics, guitar arrangements, and bottomless voice travels right to the heart and soothes the soul. A refreshing respite from most of the insipid crap we're punished with today."
