This review is from: Wee Cowrin' Timorous Beastie (Audio CD)

Karla Morton has the power of words on her side, and like a bard of old she has a story to tell. The story, titled Wee Cowrin' Timorous Beastie, draws its name from the Bard of Scotland himself, Robert Burns, and this original poem of a Scottish pirate and his lady love smacks of ancient gatherings and stories told over a tankard of ale and a groaning table.

She recites her story as well as she writes, and with Howard Baer providing a delightful musical soundtrack -- wrapped around a few traditional fragments of tunes -- this is a CD worth playing and playing again. Baer's music and the musicians performing it are so good the soundtrack would stand comfortably on its own even without Karla's recitation to accompany it.
