Free Music Notes for City Streets
Free Music Review: Wonderful rediscovery
Hit: 5 Stars
City Streets is an impressive album with wonderful anthemic songs. The nasally introspection so characteristic of her 1970s albums is mercifully absent. Instead she sings robustly on these melodious and catchy compositons. The musical style is an appealing blend of rock and pop.
The brilliant guitar work and the piano stand out in the instrumental mix. The hook-filled title song has evocative imagery whilst there is an anthemic quality to Sweet Life. A message of hope underpins Down To The Darkness although it has a melancholy feel.
A theme of upliftment flows throughout the album, as in the uptempo Lovelight and the intimate love ballad I Can't Stop Thinking About You. Legacy is quite a rock stomper, Aint That The Way a bluesy ballad with moving lyrics, and Midnight Flyer a lilting uptempo rock song with an infectuous hook.
One of my favorites is the elegant and yearning Homeless Heart where the lovely piano stands out. The album concludes with the comforting and inspiring ballad Someone Who Believes In You. These songs are all hidden classics with real soul so rediscovering this album has been a pleasant surprize.
