User Album Review
“A river runs through me,” sings Cash on the opening track of her 14th studio album. Her vocal is pure and clear, languid yet emotionally direct, depicting a country tableau. The river is a metaphor for a rich past of music and memory, but perhaps also literally the Mississippi.
Geography is central to this set of thoughtful, varied songs that roam across southern America, taking in Mobile, Memphis, Nashville and the Arkansas border, crossing the Tallahassee Bridge (scene of Bobby Gentry’s haunting 1967 classic Ode To Billie Jo) and stopping on the desolate Money Road (where terrible events in 1955 helped ignite the Civil Rights movement).
The smooth sound balances folk, gospel and blues influences with a luxurious depth, beautifully polished by collaborator (and husband) John Leventhal, yet with no trace of saccharine glibness. The first child of Johnny, Rosanne may not have her father’s gritty charisma but she shares his sense of truth in music, with a sensuous, poised style all her own. This is an elegant, mature work of a songwriter and performer at the height of her powers.
