Moments Worth Listening For
the stark vulnerability of the vocal on Scarlet Ribbons where every breath is audible
the rhythmic simplicity of Jump in the Line stripping the carnival anthem down to its folk bones
the weary but hopeful delivery of Where Have All the Flowers Gone that bridges 1960s idealism with modern age perspective
