Smile, Lynn, Smile,

This review is from: Love Sweet Love (Audio CD)
The poetess of sadness and North Country chill is back with an album of new songs-her first in four years since the magnificent UNRAVEL. Although not quite up to that high standard (nor that of her equally wonderful second cd, SLIGHTLY HAUNTED), there's lots to love on this new release. In fact, the title cut and a number of others are about the edges of love, the wishes for it, and the walls which keep it out or keep it in. Lynn's way with a melody is as engaging as ever, her almost talking and then singing approach as direct and personal as it ever was, her wistfulness and wishfulness and sadness as palpable as always.A THOUSAND LOVERS COULD PUT THEIR ARMS AROUND ME But joy breaks through sometimes or will soon-particularly in "This is the Night" and "Sweet and Tender Heart." You wish that for Lynn. You want the down-turned sides of her sensitive mouth to lift. This beautiful Canadian has done it again. Lovely.

This review is from: Love Sweet Love (Audio CD)
It's one of life's mysteries why Lynn Miles is so overlooked an artist (perhaps not comfortably fitting into any conventional category has a lot to do with it), but this is a first-class album by an artist in her prime, and it really deserves your attention. Much more "Shawn Colvin" than "Leonard Cohen", it's a lyrical multifaceted commentary on love and life that leaves me feeling wonderfully uplifted each time I hear it. Personal favourites are "Flames of love", a gentle rocker to kick-off proceedings, "Night drive", which is nominally about an overnight journey but really about the journey through life, and "This is the night", which is a bouncy, truly life-affirming song, but there actually isn't a dud track on the CD. If you haven't heard it yet, do give it a try - there's a very good chance it'll be one of the best musical discoveries you'll make in a very long time...
