Title: critical distance
Review: I've read most of the reviews here. They are little over done. But, this is a fine album. Lisa's band is tight and competent. The production and mixing of the CD are excellent. Lisa's voice, of course, is the highlight. Her voice is sublime and can send chills down my spine; vigorous, yet vulnerable. I was stuck on this album for quite a while and still enjoy listening to it from time to time. Her lyrics are one of the weaker points, though. It's not that they're bad, just not what they might be, sometimes confusing and, worst of all, sometimes trite and simplistic. Her sentiments are heartfelt, but her ability to capture them with words can still use some work. In any case, this album is well worth it. I was quite disappointed with her second album. She is a cutie, though, and that doesn't hurt.
