MUSIC CD REVIEW -- SILVERADO
© November/00   By Paul Gilbert

If you've read this ezine for any time, the name Charlotte Mair is one that appears a great deal. In fact, she has a number of poems in this issue. I don't want to discuss her poetry which has been done at greater length in the "Interview Issue", rather I want to review another of her endeavours.

If you consider that just over two years ago, she started to write poetry, it's amazing the mark she's made for herself on the Internet. From the Internet to a chapbook, to awards, she is having an effect on culture from her vantage point of Richmond BC. Now she has returned to her love of music.

Recently Charlotte has released a 4 song CD of original composed music, the disc is called "Silverado". To give you a quick review, this CD features 5 country music torch songs. Now I know we've all heard about new country, and if you're expecting something that "Shania" would sing, or in that style, you will be disappointed. There is no exposed navel in this music. This is old style country, the "Patsy Cline" school of hurtin' country.

If this is more to your liking, then it may be worth your while to go to
CD Purchase Info at Charlotte's Web Page and find out more information.
