Free Music Review: Betty's Diner
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is so good I purchased a guitar and started taking private guitar lessons to learn some of the songs. The lyrics are timeless. They make the hard times more bearable, deeper, and more real. That of course makes the good times more beautiful.
Betty's Diner: The Best of Carrie Newcomer Poster
Carrie Newcomer wonderfully combines the earthiness and social conscience of contemporary folk with a strong flair for elegant pop melodies. Though she's a teacher, social activist, and practicing Quaker, this rich 18-song collection (15 songs from her eight previous albums, three new compositions) reveals an ambitious and surprisingly broad thematic range that goes beyond mere didacticism or inspiration. Sure, there's a trace of benevolent righteousness in songs like "When One Door Closes," "Hold On," and "The Gathering of Spirits." Yet compelling tracks like the cynical "I Should've Known Better," the cleverly satirical "Bowling Baby," and the evocative title track reveal a willingness to grapple with messier and more troubling worldly themes as well. --Bob AllenFolk Music CDs
