In the Ditch

 Album Rating: (3 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Angel Band has tight harmonies, an exquisite set of backing musicians & terrific production from Lloyd Maines. However, the songwriting by Nancy Josephson is predictable and not overly interesting. After the enjoyably odd opening piece "Hey Papa Legba," the first opener is "I'll Sing This Song for You" that has a melody resembling a grade school chant-song, with very nice fiddles. "Place of Grace" that follows has a very predictable melody. "Drown in the Fountain of Good" has interesting slide guitar with Kathleen's Weber's bluesy lead vocal; however, as the song drones on, its melody belongs in the demo basket. I skip this track because it is so monotonous. "Cold Lonesome Down in Blackbird Creek" again sounds like it's set to a playground melody. It might work well on a child's CD, but is a snooze fest for adults. Robert Tangrea's "Hold Me Angel" has some pep and fancy guitar work which is also the hallmark of his "I'm Coming Home to You," a boogie track. Angel Band is at their best when their tight harmonies fly as on "Patron Saint of Opportunity." Merilee Rush & Juice Newton did "Angel of the Morning." It's by far the best song on the CD, but the version never surpasses the familiar versions. "Jump Back in the Ditch" concludes the CD with Terri Hendrix's handclap percussion and another pedestrian melody. Angel Band has a lot going for it. However, the songs aren't memorable, which makes this an average disc that will have more shelf time than airplay in my changer. Enjoy!
