Joanna Newsom: Ys

Rocky Road

From Classic Rock to Progessive to hip hop to today's hot new tunes!

I have played this through twice and I can understand that some have a bit of a problem with the voice although its not what I was expecting being quite Victoria Williams with a little Bjork on the side.
The arrangements, and of course the songs, (and I think Van Dyke Parks is all over it) flow very nicely in what I could/would/will compare to a series of soundtrack-like or even freestanding musical compositions in a very Americana style typical of VDP.
Yes, last night it flowed over me like a slow rolling wave of warm sunshine (can't imagine how I got into that mood) and very enjoyable it was too.
She's touring here in February and I am already considering a ticket buying expedition.
