Loudon Wainwright - Social Studies

Loudon Wainwright III
Social Studies

The best political songs combine passionate commitment and analytic command, laced with streaks of black humor, as in prime Mekons or Gil Scott-Heron. Liberal detachment can sound just as smug as the self-righteousness so many protest singers run aground on. So if this collection of the occasional songs Loudon Wainwright III occasionally composes for National Public Radio enjoys the advantage of his perpetual cleverness, it suffers the disadvantage of his perpetual bemusement. Not that most of these songs aren't effective once or even twice. But today's news dates tomorrow, nobody's jokes are sure-fire, boomer self-mockery equals boomer self-regard, and, God help us, there's a stupid Y2K single.

Basically, anyone who believed for more than a night that "Bill was way too cool to be true" is too resigned to the capitalist order to get beyond the quiet desperation Loudon's people have wallowed in since his dad worked for Life. Most complex achievements: "Tonya's Twirls," about class and gender, gentility and beauty; and "Pretty Good Day," in which the artiste gets up in the morning. (RS 818)
