Title: Odd Choice for Nancy
Product review: This is purely a collection of torch songs, which is an odd and unsatisfying artistic choice for Nanci. Her voice has never been her strong suit, so it seems strange to select a genre of music that relies so heavily on the vocals. Also, Nanci's style seems to be getting more and more laid back with each album release, now almost to the point of inducing sleep. I am a long time Nanci fan, and I long for the days when Nanci's sound was more aggressive and challenging. The CD packaging was barren of any extras -- no lyrics, few pictures -- which makes me wonder if there was a reason why Nanci's label put as little into this project as possible.I've been wrong before. I had a similar negative reaction to Flyer, but it eventually became one of my favorite albums of hers. I doubt, however, that it will happen again with Ruby's Torch.
