Free Music Notes for Winter Light
Free Music Review: 15 years later...still weak
Hit: 3 Stars
After the enjoying the phenomenal 'Cry Like A Rainstrom' I eagerly purchased 'Winter Light' when it was released in 1993. Boy was I disappointed. I put it away for 15 years and never bothered listening to it again. I was thumbing through my library and thought I give it a second chance. I'm amazed at the glowing reviews of this album.
I found it to be mediocre at best and that's better than my initial impression of it 15 years earlier.
I'll be honest I'm not a fan of Linda's 'experimental' phases. Whether it's American Standards, Traditional Mexican, or Salsa music I prefer her traditional pop/folk/rock/country sound. I also don't care much for 'New Age' music unless I'm experiencing an unexplicable bout of insommnia. With that said...here we have an album that seems to want to cover way too many bases in one record. 'Heartbeats Accelerate'& 'Winter Light' are the Enya-like songs here while 'Too Soon To Tell' is the american standard and 'Adonde Voy' is just another bothersome mexican song.
The rest of the seven songs range from medicore('Do What You Gotta Do')to good pop('Anyone Who Had A Heart'). The highlight here for me is the remake of Emmylou Harris's 'A River For Him', Simply gorgeous.
Don't get me wrong this is not a bad album, it's just not as good as I hoped. For the price of a penny it's hard not to recommend it, but get it now before it's out of print and used sellers are asking $30-$50 for it.
