notes

What Matters
A great new CD from an artist whose songwriting, like her voice, has deepened in tone and power. "He's Got You" treads the old ground of romance and obsession, jazzy and catchy; "What Matters" reflects fearlessly on mortality and aging; "Tierra Contente" is the artist's first political piece, a primal invocation against thoughtless environmental damage. "Because" and "I Want You To Come In" recapture the seductive innocence and tenderness of Sara K.'s earliest recordings:
"Past the hue
Past the pictures upon the wall
Windows still say it all
Because your love feels like heaven to me." Sara covers "Whiter Shade Of Pale" and "Johnny's Garden." And there's a song, an instrumental waltz and another tune for the writer's dog, Bebe (1988-1999). with Bruce Dunlap, guitar and dobro; Todd Turkisher, drums and percussion; Paul Socolow, acoustic bass; and Gil Goldstein, accordians.

    Excellent singer, best music, its beautiful engravings, Sara and 'a highly original singer, I would be able to communicate from a site more' accessible of his, there are sites like myspace offering a chance 'to large and small artists make themselves known to the whole world. We hope good!

  • This CD appeals with simingly simple tunes that entrances with almost mystical r
    author: Austin Audu

    The sophistication in this new release by Sara is in the accompaniment or rythm section, the songs are in her usual style, sweet but not too sweet but those rythms keep coming back at you untill they create a feeling of lunging, a lunging for love for clarity, like a world where you are touch with something sacred and sweet but realize that it is a private world... The recording is in the usual Chesky style clean crisp and clear...a must have.
