Subject: RE: Hard Time Come Again No More
It's from Other Voices, Too. I own it, but I have no idea where it is at the moment. I bought it because 1) I like Nanci Griffith, and 2) fRoots gave it a scathing review which prompted bloody battles in their letters section and on line. IAA said (I'm paraphrasing from memory) that she prounounced words oddly and she was frequently noticeably off pitch.
I thought there were good moments on that CD, but all of what he said was true, and it got to the point where these things seriously interfered with my ability to enjoy it. Mainly, it bothered me that either the producer couldn't hear the problems or he believed we punters wouldn't. There are some great songs, but I prefer Other Voices, Other Rooms.
