Free Music Notes for The Rose
Free Music Review: They walk in beauty like the night...
Hit: 5 Stars
(With apologies to Byron.) The first time I ever saw a picture of the Mediaeval Baebes I thought some recording industry guru was attempting the folk/classical equivalent of Robert Palmer's "Addicted To Love" video... i.e. take a dozen impossibly beautiful women and form a gimmick band to cash in on their looks. Fifteen seconds into the first track from their first album, Salva Nos, and all illusions had been shattered. These women were the real thing.The Rose is yet another classic album from the Baebes, and features one of the most exquisite pieces of cover art I have ever seen. If you have never heard the band, I would respectfully suggest that you listen to tracks 3 and 4 for a sample of what they can do. Track 3, Slay Me Suddenly, is an example of classic Baebes, with the most beautifully sung intricate vocals overlaying a typically intriguing musical track. Track 4, The Snake, follows through strongly, with a vocal trio by that truly Divine Trinity, Rachel Van Asch, Katharine Blake and Audrey Evans.
The icing on the cake is the stunning six-minute closing number, Blow Northern Wind, which is quite simply one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. Originally a 12-woman band, the Baebes are currently down to nine impossibly beautiful women, and the excellent booklet features a very classy full-page photo of each Baebe. Sigh.
