Product description
A slight departure from the usual indie darlings and experimental rockers, "Sassafras & Moonshine" pays homage to the legendary Laura Nyro, showcasing a diverse range of artists putting their own spin on her timeless classics. From the haunting vocals of Fiona Apple on "Wedding Bell Blues" to the stripped-down acoustic rendition of "Stoned Soul Picnic" by Iron & Wine, each track on this compilation offers a fresh perspective on Nyro's music. The diversity of artists, from folk singers to indie rockers, showcases the enduring influence of Nyro's songwriting across genres. However, amidst the standout performances, there are a few missteps. The overly produced cover of "Eli's Comin'" lacks the raw emotion of the original, while the decision to include a spoken word version of "Save the Country" feels out of place and disrupts the flow of the album. Overall, "Sassafras & Moonshine" is a must-listen for fans of Laura Nyro and those looking for a refreshing take on classic songs. While not every track hits the mark, the album as a whole is a fitting tribute to an artist whose music continues to inspire and influence generations. So grab a glass of moonshine, sit back, and let Nyro's timeless tunes wash over you. Cheers!
