Review title: Lighten Up, Joe
Product review: Joe Henry has been quietly releasing CDs for more than 15 years now with lots of critical acclaim and little public recognition. With each release however, Joe sounds a little more detached from the proceedings. This CD "sounds" great, the musicianship is top notch, and Joe remains a good vocalist. The overall mood is dour, not that any of his albums are big on humor. Missing is the sense of fun that marked Trampoline, which remains his best CD to date. Missing is the sense of wonder that marked Kindness of the World. There are some good songs, especially the epic Edger Bergen. Two stars--I have higher expectations for an artist of such obvious talent.
