From the first song, “The Calculation,” to the last song on the CD, “Man of a Thousand Faces,” Regina Spektor’s distinctive, plaintive voice and her piano playing deliver a captivating experience. I loved Regina Spektor’s Begin to Hope CD from a couple years ago, but this new CD has more energy and variety. If you like Neko Case, you’ll love Regina Spektor. GRADE: A
I bought her last CD (BEGIN TO HOPE), too, which was terrific. Looking forward to this one more.
So what did you think of the Christie?
FAR is just as good, or maybe a tad better, than BEGIN TO HOPE. You’re in a for a treat, Patti!
