| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Unqualified Recommendation |
| God knows I've had my complaints about some of her CDs,
but they don't apply here, because if you are like me, among the ~90% of her fans who will never see her live, this DVD is your only extant chance to see, as well as hear. To put it another way, the very first time I tried to watch this, I had to pace myself out across about 4 nights, and when the DVD was over, my first thought was "She ought to make a concert DVD for every studio CD she makes. Isn't that wild? If you wish to know what opened my eyes most, it was 2 odd-angled camera shots of Johnny (may I call him that?). Watch the DVD, see what I saw (twice), and you too will learn a bit about where the staggering emotional depth of her best work comes from. Life is too fragile for words, and faith is too strong for words. Poor, poor words! Better to sing, those who may. I bought "Leeds" with "Underneath the Stars", then bought "The Girl Who Couldn't Fly" a few days later. That last disc is still in its wrapper, and it will stay there until I am sure I have my received all I am able to from "Leeds" and "Stars". Kate Rusby is like a great secret that you wish you could tell to the whole world, except the telling is nothing, and the songs can be dodged and eluded by those who do not seek; yet those who do seek (I am speaking of meaning and expression), find, within her songs. This is marvellous to me. All the more so because she neither wants nor has a monopoly on the delight of her audience. So, enjoy, but branch out, too. |
