Music reviews of Picture Perfect Morning
Music Review: Amazingly afterthought
Rating: 5 Stars
I bought this album in early 1993 and yet it wasn't until 1996 when I "discovered" it's wonderfulness.
I bought it simply because it was Edie Brickell. I played it long enough to scan (not play) most of the songs on the album and then put it among my many other cds and forgot about it.
Years later I pulled out the disc and played it. I was thoroughly amazed!!! Only two of the songs are striking in their introductions... which makes them deceptively lush and beautiful. The songs are true compositions which require the listener to pay attention from beginning to end to appreciate the incredible tones, instrumentation and lyrics of each song. Particularly the second half of the album, which can almost bring tears to my eyes if I allow myself to fall deep enough into the music.
"And when the plane flew through the rain, it shook the wings and people screamed. But I was so sure that I'ld see you again, I was not afraid of anything." - This lyric in and of itself is deceptively wonderful as only when taken with the hauntingly serene accordian (and other instruments) does the vibrance and brilliance shine through.
Rarely can such a frighteningly realistic song as "Lost In The Moment" convey such warmth and loveliness, in spite of the starkness of the story. And yet such contradictory loveliness shines throughout the album.
Unquestionably it can never be mistaken as an equal to "SHOOTING RUBBERBANDS..." or "GHOST OF A DOG." Never as lighthearted and simple as they and never as dismissable. This album is never a collection of songs and should never be evaluated as such. This album (though not a concept album) is a woven fabric of musical highs and lows, ebbs and flows that sneaks up on the listener with a tidal wave of musical brilliance that crests with a whitecapped rush. Edie Brickell created a truly "Picture Perfect" album... morning, evening or otherwise.
