Title: Linda Thompson CD Post by: PLW (Peter) on September 01, 2007, 11:09:34 AM It's getting great reviews. . .anyone heard a sneak preview yet?
Title: Re: Linda Thompson CD Post by: davidmjs on September 01, 2007, 11:36:00 AM I've been listening to it fairly regularly for about a month. It's superb - in the same vein as the last one, but to these ears a little more wonderful, if such a thing could be possible....
Title: Re: Linda Thompson CD Post by: Bob Barrows on September 01, 2007, 11:51:51 AM It's been released for a few weeks now. I like it better than Fashionably Late. Highlights:
Whiskey, Bob Copper and Me - Eliza Carthy's voice sounds so right providing harmonies on this song. Katy Cruel - Lovely rendition of this traditional song Do Your Best For Rock and Roll - I like this despite the C&W twang - the guitar work makes it Versatile Heart = everything in this track just clicks - it sounds like Dolly Parton providing backup vocals, but it it is, she's uncredited Title: Re: Linda Thompson CD Post by: Jim on September 01, 2007, 01:07:45 PM just like what david james said
Title: Re: Linda Thompson CD Post by: Bob Barrows on September 01, 2007, 02:38:37 PM Yep - just thought he might like a few more details.
Of course, most of the songs are "nice" ;D ;) Title: Re: Linda Thompson CD Post by: Sir Martin on September 01, 2007, 04:42:17 PM I wasn't a big fan of 'Fashinably Late', but will give it a spin.

Did you like all Richard & Linda Thompson's albums? Serious question - I can't understand how anybody that liked Richard & Linda's slower stuff (roughly 75% of it?) could fail to be anything bit a big fan of FL....but then again, I've heard this before so I'm obviously wrong. No change there then... ;) Title: Re: Linda Thompson CD Post by: Sir Martin on September 01, 2007, 10:02:01 PM I wasn't a big fan of 'Fashinably Late', but will give it a spin.
