Courier
— SIG 1270
COURIER captures Richard Shindell and his band at their live
best in 2001. Moving from the religious, erotic metaphor of
On a Sea of Fleur de Lis to the full-throated menace of
Fishing, COURIER'S folk-rock doesn't get any better than
this: supple, fluid, intelligent, and muscular. Shindell's
powerful, astringent baritone and quietly stunning guitar
work root the album, while his outstanding band drives it.
The definitive Shindell album, COURIER is one of the best
discs of the decade - in any genre - to date. |
