Music reviews of Where We Live: Stand for What You Stand On: A Benefit CD for EarthJustice
Music Review: best compilation I've heard
Rating: 5 Stars
This is a compilation I actually still listen to. It goes down easy, but still inspires me every time, and it has such a wide range of people -- from Pop Staples to Michael Franti. It introduced me to a few artists I hadn't heard, like Michael Franti and Dan Zanes & Friends. And all for a good cause. Not bad!
Description of Where We Live: Stand for What You Stand On: A Benefit CD for EarthJustice
Subtitled - Stand For What You Stand On. A Campaign for the Universal Right to Clean Air & Clean Water. A Benefit CD For Earthjustice. Featuring Norah Jones, Pops Staples & Ry Cooder, Los Lobos, Dan Zanes (with Lou Reed & The Rubi Theatre Co.), Willie Nelson, John Hammond & Tom Waits, & more. 16 tracks. EMI. 2003.A benefit CD for Earthjustice, Where We Live touts "the Universal Right to Clean Air & Clean Water." Sixteen tracks in various rootsy styles wind a thread through nature imagery ("Like a tree planted by the water, I shall not be moved," sings Pops Staples; Bob Dylan is represented by his great, forgotten 1971 single "Watching the River Flow") and a more general theme of peace and social justice (Willie Nelson's "Living in the Promiseland," the Neville Brothers' "Sister Rosa"). Veteran singer-activists Sweet Honey in the Rock link the two with "More Than a Paycheck," a song about the perils of pollution and simply trying to keep food on the table. Cannily promoting a theme of Christian spirituality (the Staples and Nevilles tracks, along with those by Maria Muldaur and Bonnie Raitt, Tina Turner and Robert Cray, and John Hammond and Tom Waits) as a corollary to environmental support, the album also seeks to pull the sense of righteousness away from corporate and right-wing political interests. --Rickey Wright
