 Review
Headline: Literate, liberal and lingers long in the mind.

The music is based on twisting guitar patterns in a sort of Byrds/Smiths hybrid. Production is clear and avoids an obvious 80s template. Two elements stand out vividly-Natalie Merchant's vocal delivery and the non-mainstream subject matter. Natalie's voice is very natural- no effects needed-and much admired. It is her words though that are intriguing. We get a debate on smacking children, adult illiteracy, failure to get out of bed and a comment on greed.
Highlights include Don't Talk (which touches on alcohol abuse), Sister Rose (the best song about a wedding that I can think of-with a little sly ending) and Verdi Cries-the solo end track that is a thing of breathless beauty. Only dud is the cover of Cat Stevens' Peace Train-seems completely un-necessary and was, of course, chosen as a single.
Natalie has received some attacks over the years for being a bit preachy and she wears her liberal-heart on her sleeve. Later recordings were less schoolteachery, but this is still a top album.
Will grow and grow on you if given a chance.
