Free Music Review: Like Stepping Into Another World
Hit: 5 Stars
If you listen to this CD without a sense of where she is coming from, you may think like one reviewer said that this sounds hokey or nauseatingly dreamy...I highly disagree. This is still my favorite Sarah McLachlan album next to "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy." To me, Sarah has always had this renaissance quality to her music and this one exemplifies this quality more than any other album. Sarah plays the 12 string guitar on this album! Can you think of any other female artist that plays a 12 string guitar? If you know, let me know! Simply put, this is a breathtakingly beautiful album with deep intense romantic lyrics of longing and forbidden charms. The instrumental piece "Uphill Battle" is wonderful! This album is a keeper in my collection although other Sarah McLachlan albums have been traded and sold in. This album shows the range and beauty of a still wonderful female artist who is truly talented and successful without selling her sexuality.
Touch Poster
Nova Scotia-born singer/songwriter Sarah McLachlan was only 20 years old when Touch was released in 1988. This is an impressive first effort, though maybe too earnest in its attempt to break new ground in otherwise familiar terrain of late-'80s synthesized textures. Yet McLachlan's pristine vocals and intricate guitar work yield several memorable tracks, including the opening "Out of the Shadows," the popular "Vox" (which also appears in a tripped-out--verging on hokey--remixed version at the end), and the enchanting "Strange World." Her youthful romanticism is perhaps captured best in "Trust" ("Somewhere deep inside me I hold a picture / Of a time long gone--a time of ease and / Simple pleasures..."), a catchy tune that is embellished with male vocals, sparkling keyboards, bongos, and distant electric-guitar licks. Later tracks become more endearing with each listen but in certain moods can be nauseatingly dreamy and vaporous. Nevertheless, this disc endures as a fine remembrance of the early days, when McLachlan was a fresh-eyed mystic songbird whose passions were not yet realized on an international scale. --Rebecca RobinsonAlternative Rock Music CDs
