Title: Someone needed to take this thing in hand
Product review: Much of the music is lovely, though the track sequencing doesn't show any organizing principle. The cover photo is silly, and a little sad. What is Judy trying to prove? And to whom is she trying to prove it -- us or herself?But what's really distressing are the booklet notes -- by Gloria Steinem (some inconsequential reminiscences about her days as a folkie college student) and particularly those by Collins herself, who can't write her way out of a paper bag. I was very disappointed to learn that there is such a rambling, vapid intellect behind that lovely voice.Judy Collins just had too much control over this project. She should have exercised a little less ego and a little more judgment by letting someone else hold the reins.
