Title: Opening doors
Review: Liz Phair's debut album, "Exile in Guyville" is a step forward, a huge step, for women in music. Liz does what, for some reason, other women in music were unable to do--she cries out in this album from a place called "Guyville" where men in music have reigned supreme. A direct response to the 18 songs on the Rolling Stones' "Exile on Main Street," Liz Phair throws a few punches at the world of music, using explicit lyrics like terms of endearment, answering the question of "what are all of those good girls thinking on the inside?" Buy this cd for its insights on life, buy it for its importance in music today, buy it for its dry, honest lyrics, buy it for its unusual sound, for any of these reasons, just buy it. It's one of those albums all music collectors should recognize, respect, and own.
