Hymns Of The 49th Parallel

Advantages: You'll learn perfect singing technique from this album
Disadvantages: More songs on the album would have been great

Haunting voice, haunting songs, almost otherworldly. K D Lang really comes up with goods on this one. Her rendition of the Jane Siberry's "The Valley" is par excellence. The music is restrained yet emotional and seems to ebb and flow in all the right places with perfect timing. Of it goes without saying that on this album K D Lang's voice is the most commanding instrument in the ensemble. She must have had a lot of fun with this one because it truly ...

A road worth travelling

Advantages: Fantastic Singer/Songwriter/Musician
Disadvantages: The CD has to come to an end (unless you use repeat button)

...it was perilous underneath". Stones in the Road - the title song tells of how life used to be and how different it is now in modern times with a beautiful melody. A Keeper for every flame - A toe-tapper of a song about being guarded and not giving all of yourself to a relationship "Sometimes its a fire burning out of control/Sometimes its a candle burning long and low" Tender when I want to be - a song about finding the right person Trisha Yearwood ...
...- an upbeat number about a woman pulling the strings and being in charge in the relationship. Lee Roy Parnell plays guitar on this track. The last word - self explanatory this one, a relationship breaking down, the woman walking away giving the man the last word, I think this is the weakest song on this album The end of my pirate days - this one is about leaving a life of adventure behind and living out the rest of your days in solitude - "And ...

The perfect marriage of Rhythm & Rhyme…

Advantages: Wonderful singer
Disadvantages: None come to mind

The perfect marriage of Rhythm & Rhyme… When this album was released in the March of 1992, I personally had never heard of K.D. Lang. All this was about to change with the release of “Constant Craving” as a single from the album I was completely blown away what a performance, I had never heard anything like it before. On one hand the vocals reminded me of an old torch singer like Peggy Lee or Patsy Cline but on the other hand ...
...the feel of Elvis or Roy Oribson, this was enough of a reason for me to go and buy the album. As the album opened with the track “Save me” I held my breath this was heart stopping stuff, as I checked the sleeve notes I saw not only was she a voice to die for but she co-wrote all the tracks, all with her producers Greg Penny and Ben Mink. This track also contained some excellent “Lap Steel Guitar” playing by Greg Leisz, which ...
