Music reviews of Mrs Pinocci's Guitar

Music Review: A Thoughtful, Humorous, and Sometimes Somber Album
Rating: 5 Stars

My daughter bought me this album after hearing Cheryl Wheeler in concert. I listened to it hesitantly, fearing self-indulgent nonsense. What I heard, however, both surprised and delighted me. Wheeler has become one of my favorite musicians, and I eagerly await each new release. This album has a range of material that should please all but those seeking hip hop or heavy metal music.

The title cut recalls a late night folk sing, and conjures up visions of a campfire and beer. There are also humorous, but biting satire that everyone should appreciate. "T.V." is about camping without the joys of commercial television with its infomercials, shopping channels, and fishing shows. "Is it Peace or is it Prozac?" questions our modern reality of drug induced bliss, in this case legal drugs.

All of Cheryl Wheeler's albums contain songs about love lost, a staple in many music genres and among many musicians. Sometimes she wallows in this problem, but not here. This one has two songs on the subject that I especially like. First, "Does the Future Look Black" is a sustained conversation over whether or not a couple will remain a couple. "So Far to Fall" is a lament on the loss of energy resulting from a breakup. Its chorus is especially eloquent:
"Well this ain't the love you swore to me.
And this ain't the life it's supposed to be.
And I don't know just how to hold on now,
and it's so far to fall.
From the warm light in your eyes,
to nothing at all."

Finally, there is a wonderful song about preserving the environment, "The Rivers," which asks how we might stop water pollution.

Cheryl Wheeler is a talented songwriter with a witty turn of phrase. Her voice is elegant and sometimes sultry. The material in this album is certainly worth the time and cost. Enjoy!
