Free Music Notes for Live At McCabes' Guitar Shop
Free Music Review: Great solo performance
Hit: 5 Stars
I've been a Heart fan for years, and have loved Ann Wilson voice, the best female rock singer for decades (IMO). If I heard anything about Heart, I used to think only in Ann Wilson "and the rest of the band".
Hearing Nancy's solo show at McCabes Guitar Shop, I realized how good guitarist and singer she is and, something I already knew, how a great composer.
Album starts with Heart's song "Even It Up", very well performed by Nancy (only her voice and her guitar, some times helped by Kristen Barry and Astrid Young with background vocals). Other Heart stuff made me smile and enjoy as well, but new songs which I'd never heard before, are really great. "Ground Zero" is the one I like the most, a song which, musically, goes beyond the ballad I could expected.
Guitar playing, even though it some times sounds a bit raw, like it is in Even It Up, is amazing. Just listen the couple which starts with Paul Simon's "Kathy's Song", followed by Nancy's "Half Moon", as well as an awesome song for solo guitar called "Leghead's Lament". This clean and rich way of playing her acoustic guitar, is present in the whole disc.
Sequence formed by "Love Mistake, Ground Zero, Leghead's Lament, In Your Eyes, Angels and These Dreams (songs from 7 to 12) is lovely.
I wonder why a Nancy's studio album has not produced yet.
Live At McCabes' Guitar Shop Poster
Considering her status as a driving force behind the worldwide success of Heart, it's surprising to see the caution with which guitarist-vocalist Nancy Wilson has approached her bow as a solo performer. Most bands spin off solo careers as often as--indeed, perhaps more often than--they change their shirts. But Wilson is old school and Heart has always gotten her best stuff. Just so, Live at McCabes comes off as a loose and low-key showcase for Wilson's new material, as well as a chance to show off her interpretive skills. The 13-song all-acoustic program is highlighted by well-chosen covers such as Paul Simon's "Kathy's Song," Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes," and Joni Mitchell's "A Case of You." Wilson also takes on three Heart classics--"Even It Up," "Angels," and "These Dreams"--while new songs such as the mandolin-driven "Half Moon" and the gorgeous "Everything" stand comfortably alongside her best stuff. "All we need is a campfire," Wilson quips at one point, an appropriate summation of this intimate, unpretentious, classy set. --Daniel DurchholzJazz Music CDs
