Looking for the right tree, Owen, I found long enough ROPE though!! :-) It is the very simplicity of the song "Night Ride Home" that make it such a gem! Riding a in car, top down, balmy moon-lighted night, not a care in this world......your sweetie is with you or you are thinking about your sweetie......What more do you want?? Passion Play: A masterpiece, A masterpiece,!! repeat after me.........she gets you thinkin on this one. I find it very rythmic and hypnotic.....I get lost very easily when listening to this song. The prose with the poetry; how does she convey all that she does in a five minute tune? Shear genius!
DJRD:WE are in agreement with this one. Exhilarating.....pulsating. Strangely though, I didn't like it when it was first released, I had gotten it for a Christmas present,way back when......vinyl, of course. Because of out agreement on this one... your noose just got loose....

NRH is pretty much (dare I say >this) a middle aged album - she sounds half asleep on most of it, the >rhythms are plodding, melodies unadventurous and the chord sequences >cliched.

Where did that spirit go on TTT? >Especially after the brooding, dark and intelligent works on Turbulent >Indigo showed that Joni was still a master (and a half).
