Title: One Word...
Review: ...COHESIVE. Oh mercy, I believe this album might actually define cohesive. Possibly I'm disproportionately enamored of music that recalls the American experience/essence, or possibly this is just a really freaking amazing album. Likely a little of both.Not since the Doors, L.A Woman, have I come across an LP that fits together as well as Scarlets walk. Although she's kind enough to include a little map detail in the CD jacket, you don't need it. The music takes you to those places whether through stunning lyrics--the kind that strike something deep within in you, though you can't always immediately pinpoint the reason--or regionally inspired melodies. It's music to drive to, think over, mull about and, untimately, collapse to in recognition of Amos' sheer genius. Yay for Tori.
