Music reviews of Learn to Love It

Music Review: Jesse's best
Rating: 5 Stars

IMHO this is Jesse Winchester's best work. I first bought it on vinyl, way back in the 70's. Every track here is a perfect gem. The arrangements do not overwhelm the intimacy of his songs as they do on his subsequent releases. This album is not dated and is as viable today as it was the day it was released; his other work does not hold up as well.

Description of Learn to Love It

Jesse Winchester is a sort of folk/rock singer/songwriter who issued numerous albums for the Bearsville label throught the 70's & early 80's. "Learn To Love It" was originally released in 1974.
A lyrical tenor with a courtly Southern drawl. Songs steeped in deft gospel, folk, country, and R&B influences in elegantly spare settings. An underlying intelligence, mixing romantic reverie with vignettes that convey a palpable sense of place, and sketch wonderful characters with moments of low-keyed, shaggy dog humor. If that sounds like Lyle Lovett, you're more than 20 years late. Louisiana-born, Memphis-bred Jesse Winchester was a conscientious objector viewing his rootsy origins and contemporary American life from his Montreal exile when writing this, his third solo album, and it glows with an easy charm undiminished by the intervening years. Songs include meditations on spirit ("How Far to the Horizon,") and homeland ("Mississippi You're on My Mind"), patriotism, and faith. Blame Winchester's lack of careerism and Canadian operating theater for his relative obscurity--like its two predecessors, this is a deeply satisfying exploration of faith and roots that sounds prescient against the current backdrop of questing American roots rock. --Sam Sutherland
