It's hard to define that certain something in music that makes it feel a certain way instead of just sounding a certain way. Whatever that essence or spirit is, Linda Draper definitely possesses it- the feelings brought by this cd I can liken to first listening to Vashti Bunyan, Nick Drake, etc- artists who have that abillity to take you in, envlope you in song form. Linda's songs could loosely be filed under the psyche/folk category that is pretty popular lately, but there is something here that transcends the trends of the moment. To those that live in a city and have a heart that beats in a less frantic way, this will resonate- the lyrics both speak to the defenses of living in such an area and the yearning for something that illuminates all the chaos (at least they do for me). In any case, I just felt this cd deserved some praise on Amazon- it really is something special.

I accidentally came across this CD while reading a review of Linda Draper, I sent for it and have played it about fifty times. She has an amazing voice, is a great writer, and the whole delivery of the music is wonderful. I think this is a multigenerational CD, and a great collection of songs. You should get this CD, She is terrific.

Hyptnotic, methodic folk music. One of my top 5 favorite albums of all time. Broken Muzzle is a must hear.
