Free Music Review: Top 10 albums ever
Hit: 5 Stars
1988 was a good year for the breakthrough of strong female musicians - Tracy Chapman, Bonnie Raitt, Michelle Shocked, Sinead O'Connor, Edie Brickell. At a time when it seemed like 80's hair bands were here to stay, in came all these strong women with their own distinct styles to begin the sway of popular music. It wasn't until that year's grammy award ceremony that this little known gem stepped into the spotlight for me. I remember watching - jaw dropped - at the intensity and conviction of this this lady's stage performance. I went to work the next day not remembering her name - describing her to a co-worker who watched as well - his response was "yeah, who was THAT?!?!?!" By that evening, I had a name and an album, and Ms. Etheridge had a new fan. I started with "Bring Me Some Water" - her nominated song, and was hooked. The stark, percussion only "Occasionally" is stunning. Her now live favorites "Similar Features", "Chrome Plated Heart", and "Like The Way I Do" open the album with a huge punch. The album's masterpiece "Don't You Need" was all that I needed back then to know that this woman would eventually be a superstar. There must have been something in the air in 1988 that convinced this young writer and the studio to trash the overarranged versions of these songs that were originally recorded. Stepping back and recording the final version of the songs basically live, the album nearly captures the raw talent and conviction that Etheridge posesses on stage. The only thing better is actually hearing her perform these classics in person. Thank you Ms. Etheridge for maintaining your integrity, your intensity, your impressivly high standards, and most of all for your rock and roll - let it rain down on me.
