Mindy Smith – Long Island Shores
This album is fantastic! Of course, I wouldn’t have expected anything else. Mindy Smith has the sweet voice of an angel, and her lyrics are clever…and different.
Please Stay, a haunting ballad (most of them are, I guess), is just about my favorite on this album.
The Edge of Love, though, could also get that position.
“The edge of love here I stand
Feels like sky where there should be land
I wanna fly, wanna take your hand”
Peace of Mind – great.
Out of Control, Out Loud, Tennessee – all great.
Little Devil –
…thought he’d have two big horns
and look at me with big red eyes
Instead he wore those baby blues
and whispered promises and lies
The only reason the album loses the half of a star is the spiritual angle of many of the songs. That works for most, but not all, of my circle.
