 Kim Richey Bitter Sweet
| |
Spin (5/97, pp.115-116) - "...Complicating Rosanne Cash's prettiness with Lucinda Williams's worn sensuality, Richey's voice conveys both unadorned directness and awesome range....in running crooked across modern country's fractured camps and simplistic themes, Richey is...the honky-tonk angel as zigzag wanderer." Q Magazine (4/97, p.128) - 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...A benchmark against which the rest of the year's country albums must be judged, Richey's peers and previous clients should be wondering exactly how they're going to match it." Entertainment Weekly (3/7/97, p.67) - "...Kim Richey's second release displays a more worldly lyrical stance and a tougher sound than the Nashville norm. Read More Add to that her angel-with-a-past voice and BITTER SWEET becomes a near-perfect album of cutting-edge country that has as much heart as attitude." - Rating: A>
