Earth & Sky: Songs Of Laurie Lewis by Laurie Lewis - DeepRiffs

COMPILATION

Excerpting Laurie Lewis's trio of albums for Flying Fish, and adding four new cuts, the collection does a good job of tracking her development as a country/bluegrass performer, and her adoption of more open forms that cater to more of a singer/songwriter mode -- the concluding "Magic Light," in fact, is quite haunting. A good starting point. ~ Steven E. McDonald
