I think those who loved "Living With Ghosts" will be very pleased. I am a big fan of both "LWG" and "Flaming Red." Very different cds...but both great in their own ways. It's too bad her cd "Silver Bell" won't be heard by the public...it's in a category all it's own. What a versatile artist she is. <> Yes...I think you've got it exactly right. But I still think the cd is worthy of more success than it's getting if it were promoted more (by the label). <> Right. She toured...but not with a band. A tour with a band wasn't being supported which is too bad because I think some of these songs are "band" songs. I love seeing her solo acoustic...but I know a band is what is needed to really promote the cd. I thought I heard or read somewhere that she might be tourning with a band (or mini band) next time 'round...but who knows. <> Yeah...you're probably right. I don't think she needs to be the media junkie that (the childless) Sheryl Crow seems to be in order to get a little more attention for this cd though. I think a little more help from the label could have gone a long way. Thanks for the input.

Can't wait. > We saw Patty Griffin last Saturday night in Cleveland a- and she was drop dead brilliant. Her voice was strong and pure and the musicianship was stop notch. She played tunes from all three albums with an obvious emphasis on the new one -- which as you mention is fantastic. We cannot stop listening to it.

And way too appropriate. Patty will be live on 92.5FM THE RIVER radio station here in Boston on Friday, April 26th (time to be announced)...which is the day of her show here in Somerville. I saw her instore performance this month in Harvard Square...and as Steve said...She is in FINE form. Perfect in fact.
