专辑简介

This CD, The Wishing Chair, is one of the best CD's I have yet come across. I bought it about six years ago, after Our Time In Eden came out, and I still listen to it often. The Wishing Chair is like a painting or a novel. It's an American dreamscape...songs like "Cotton Alley" and "Can't Ignore the Train" show snippets of small town life, "Grey Victory" recounts the bombing of Hiroshima, "Among the Americans" tells the story of the Cherokee Trail of Tears and "Maddox Table," one of my favorite tracks on The Wishing Chair, tells the story of industrialization and the beginning of unionization without being preachy. And Daktari...try NOT to dance when you listen to that track.
