     (*Where one might expect a celtic or jazz cd Mari and Cory instead
have a new, creative and energetic approach. Love this CD. This was John
Herald's first solo album. The company folded just after it was released
and it was first released on CD in this re-issue. I had never heard it and
I love it. He is not playing bluegrass or folk or singer songwriter love
songs, just his own quirky style. So happy I chanced on this. The demo
version of Wind on the Water seems to hit harder. This may be his best
work. The second CD of the 2 CD best of is all demos.*)

were recorded. John Herald with a song about his real house burning down
and the Woodstock community rebuilding it. Really like this Lori Lieberman

was a co-write with Costello*)

     (*Elvis Costello wrote notes for each song in this collection, some
quirky, some quite informative. For I Want to Vanish he writes, "This is
the second of two songs written at June Tabor's request. The first was "All
this Useless beauty", but I believe that this is both a superior song and a
better record. I wrote this at a time when I had been reading up about some
of the lost singers to American Folk music whose recording careers were
curtailed by the Great Depression. It occurred to me that when people
started arriving in "the backwoods" 30 years later, with their tape
recorders and documentary film crews, there might have been one or two
brave souls who did not want to be rescued from obscurity. This song can be
understood as the testimony of such an unlikely creature. There are some
kinds of music that need to be rare. I thought that June Tabor would
appreciate the thoughts that were the background to what is really a very
personal song. It was a lot easier to accept the darker implication of the
lyric when I heard it expressed by June's beautiful voice."*)
