Personnel: John Gorka (vocals, guitar); Roy Rogers (slide guitar); Todd Phillips (acoustic bass); Robbie Magruder (drums); John Jennings (percussion); Kathy Mattea, Nanci Griffith, Shawn Colvin (background vocals). This best-of collects some of the 1990s recordings of John Gorka, one of New Jersey's lesser-known musical exports, an expert guitarist and evocative singer whose smart, odd, deeply felt songs conjure images of Richard Thompson and whose voice recalls a smoother Gordon Lightfoot. In a set that veers from the arcane to the pastoral, the mysterious "Jack's Crows" shows Gorka's more esoteric side, while "I Saw a Stranger With Your Hair" evokes the heartbreak of irretrievable loss. Pure John Gorka, like the other titles in Windham Hill/Legacy's straightforward Pure series, aims at a distillation of its subject's career and gets it to-the-point right. Here you'll find all the underappreciated folkie's favorites -- "I Saw a Stranger with Your Hair," "When She Kisses Me," "Looking Forward" -- plus lesser-known meditations on sensitivity and vulnerability such as "The Ballad of Jamie Bee" and "Silence." As might be expected with any collection of Gorka's songs, a major selling point of this disc is its collaborators -- Gorka boasts a lot of great and supportive musical friends; among them Lucy Kaplansky, Shawn Colvin, Cliff Eberhardt, and Jennifer Kimball. ~ Tammy La Gorce Windham Hill Presents: Pure - John Gorka Music Windham Hill Presents: Pure - John Gorka Songs Windham Hill Presents: Pure - John Gorka Review

Audio Mixer: Michael Dumas. Recording information: The Fillmore, San Francisco, CA (11/20/2003/11/22/2003). Lucinda Williams has earned a reputation for her meticulous approach to making albums, but a careful listen to her work suggests that she isn't trying to make her music sound perfect, she just wants it to sound right, and she isn't afraid to spend the extra time waiting for the charmed moment to get caught on tape. This attitude seems to ...
