 (1 Customer Review)
Joan Osborne's "One of Us" was her one and only hit back in 1995, and it gave her near-mythical status though it misrepresented her talent as a singer. Osborne is a soul singer and a blues singer. She has performed with everyone from the Funk Brothers to the Grateful Dead. She's also released very few recordings. And seeing her name on anything gets the listener's hopes up. In this case, they are dashed, as One of Us is a compilation of tracks from her debut album, Relish, and 2002's fine How Sweet It Is. While "One of Us" will be the best-known cut here, it's the soul tracks, such as "Why Can't We Live Together," Barrett Strong's "Smiling Faces Sometimes," Sly Stone's "Everybody Is a Star," Thom Bell's "I'll Be Around," and Stevie Wonder's "Love's in Need of Love Today," that take the cake. In addition, her cover of Dave Mason's classic rock smash "Only You Know and I Know" adds plenty to the original. However, given that everything is taken from only two albums, this isn't even representative of Osborne's recording career -- it leaves out cuts from Blue Million Miles, Righteous Love, and her 1991 independent debut Soul Show. From a fan's perspective, there is nothing here; for the novice, this is a fine introduction to Osborne, though it doesn't begin to give the entire picture. ~ Thom Jurek

| | Linda Ronstadt Adieu False Heart CD (2006)
One Of Us
$15.05 
Personnel: Linda Ronstadt; Ann Savoy; Joel Savoy (acoustic guitar, fiddle); Sam Broussard, Chas Justus (acoustic guitar); Sam Bush (mandolin); Andrea Zonn (violin); Stuart Duncan (fiddle); Krista Wilkinson (viola); Kristin Wilkinson (strings); Dirk Powell (harmonica, accordion, bass guitar); Byron House (upright bass).
By the early 2000s Linda Ronstadt was galaxies away from the '70s soft rock on which she made her name. On a journey that led her deeper and deeper into American roots music she began working with traditional Cajun artist Ann Savoy (of the Savoy-Doucet Cajun Band), and the results of the collaboration can be found on 2006's graceful and beautifully measured ADIEU, FALSE HEART.
The material is deep-roots folk with a strong Cajun flavor, and with top session players like mandolinist Sam Bush on board, the execution and playing is never less than flawless. Yet the arrangements and approach transcend ...

To fans of Jewish music - both traditional and modern, taken from the Ancient Texts or newly composed - Debbie Friedman is a legend, a star and a pioneer. For nearly 35 years, Debbie's music has brought the teachings of Judaism into the 20th and 21st centuries through her music. Her songs are often part of the prayer tradition at many synagogues and camps. Steeped in the folk tradition of some of those she has followed - Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell, Judy Collins - Debbie performs music that teaches, that inspires and that heals. "Over the years," Debbie explains, "I am finding more and more Jewish people who, in the past had been alienated from Jewish life. I have seen that through music, mine and others', many have been able to find their way back to Judaism. What was once a religious wasteland for some has become a wellspring of spirituality, hope and joy." Growing up in a Jewish family that found themselves pushed into the less strictly adherent Reform movement of Judaism, Debbie became involved in their youth groups and camps. By taking text from the Bible and other historical sources and setting them to music, her first songs brought together the popular music of the time and the millennia old teachings of traditional Judaism to young Jewish people all over the country and the world. Today, her songs have become widely known. Often people who sing these songs in their Synagogues or camps don't realize that they were composed by Debbie Friedman. They assume that they are a part of traditional liturgical prayer. In fact, they have become the traditional Jewish music and the evolution of this whole genre of contemporary, accessible music is attributed to Debbie. Her music crosses all denominational lines, not only within the Jewish world, but within the Christian community as well. Since starting her career, she has produced 21 albums. She has performed at camps, in synagogues, community centers, major and performing arts centers, large and small. In celebration of her 25th anniversary, she performed at Carnegie Hall where she sold out 3 years consecutively. Because of her own powerful commitment, her belief in the expression of values found in the text, as well as the quality and beauty of her songwriting abilities, Debbie Friedman's music is beloved by people of all ages, all walks of life, all religions from all over the world. Sung in Hebrew ...
