Music reviews of Time (The Revelator)
Music Review: Possibly perfect.
Rating: 5 Stars
What you have here is Gillian Welch and David Rawlings writing and performing their compositions. So yes, basically it's Gillian's voice and guitar backed by David's voice and guitar... and the result is perfect. The combination of Gillian's clear American bluegrass/folk voice underpinned by David's exquisitely judged harmonies makes for blissful listening. But it's not just the performances, the songs are beautiful, and some, like Dear Someone and Elvis Presley Blues are latecoming folk/blues classics.
Recommended without reservation.
Description of Time (The Revelator)
Grammy-nominated artist Gillian Welch has created some of her most passionate works on her 3rd release. This 10 song CD was produced by songwriting partner David Rawlings and was recorded in the historic RCA Studio B in Nashville, features the hauntingly ethereal 'Revelator'as it's lead track as well as a live performance of 'I Want To Sing That Rock And Roll.' 10 tracks. Acony Records. 2001.The considerable promise carried forth on Gillian Welch's first two albums is thoroughly fulfilled on Time (The Revelator). Welch has traded the guidance of her previous producer, T Bone Burnett, for the sympathetic studio skills of her longtime guitarist-harmony singer David Rawlings, who loosens the reins just enough to allow moments of spontaneity to sparkle within the duo's spare, eloquent playing. "Revelator" is an instant classic, perhaps the first great folk song of the 21st century. "I Want to Sing That Rock and Roll" is three minutes of Louvins/Everlys-style bliss. "April the 14th, Part 1" haunts its historical context with an achingly melancholy melody. It all leads up to the epic 14-minute "I Dream a Highway," one of the finest closing tracks ever put on record. --Peter Blackstock
