Allison Moorer’s latest CD is a collection of moody songs. Moorer wrote all of them except for “It’s Gonna Feel Good (When It Stops Hurting).” My favorites are “Like the Rain” and “Easy in the Summertime.” Moorer is sometimes considered a Country & Western singer, but there isn’t any twanging on this CD. The music projects a sense of hope amid despair. If you’re looking for Allison Moorer in a more cheerful mood, try her earlier CDs, The Duel and The Hardest Part. Both are very good. But, if you’re in the mood for the darker side of Allison Moorer, then Crows is the CD to listen to. GRADE: B+
I can see why you’re attracted to her… I mean her music.
😉
I’ll bet Art Scott likes Allison Moorer (if not her music), too, Jeff. We share a weakness for redheads.
I bet you would’ve bought this CD based on that face alone.
You would be right, Patti.
Never heard of her until now, but you’re right. But like Tori Amos, I suspect I’ll only like her with the mute on.
Allison Moorer has a better voice than Tori Amos, Art. And as far as I know, Allison is tattoo free.
