Title: a lump of coal in my Christmas sock
Review: Reecived this as a gift on Christmas. Never heard of Kaki King before.Can't make any sense at all out of this sound (can't even bring myself to call it "music"). It's just a lot of aimless, unfocused, and shapeless sound. Sometimes she gets a rhythm going, but then she loses it, and the entire piece falls apart. This happens in several tracks.There is not a single melody anywhere on this CD. How can anyone record an entire CD with a complete absence of melody? What is the point of that?It's like writing a novel with a lot of loose words and phrases, but nary a complete sentence. Just lots of words, but no story, no characters, no plot. It's pointless.This CD is pointless.There are so many truly fantastic acoustic guitarists out there. This poor girl is no match for any of them. I much prefer Muriel Anderson to Kaki King.This is a very weak effort. This music should never have been released. What a shame.
