Description
|
|
|
|
Suzzy Roche is joined by sister Maggie, daughter Lucy, and Loudon Wainwright III (Lucy's father) on this free-spirited collection. Out of her musical jukebox come such novelties as "Yankee Doodle" accompanied by tin whistle, Maggie's "G Chord Song," and the jazzy "Out of the Blue." "Wainwright and Jules Shear add hillbilly harmonies on 'Cold Hard Wind'…. 'To Alaska With Love' is an epic love story, the kind that songwriters love to tackle. 'Love Comes to Town' is an ode to open hearts while the other side is told in the wistful 'No Such Thing as Love.'… Producers Stewart Lerman and Roche have just the right touch with her heartfelt and strong folk music; it sings out rather than sits back sounding quaint—no easy task for a voice as sweet and old-fashioned as Roche's."—All Music Guide "The songs are gentler than some of The Roches' material but share that slightly skewed worldview."—Glasgow Herald
