Album Review - Various Artists - Sail Away: The Songs of Randy Newman
By Tracy M. Rogers
Taking on the back catalog of any artist is a daunting task; attempting
to cover the work of an iconoclast like singer-songwriter Randy Newman
is damn near impossible. Yet the good folks at Sugar Hill have attempted
to do just that. Produced by Steve Fishell, Sail Away: The Songs of
Randy Newman finds seminal alt-country stars -- as well as a handful of
performers from the blues/R&B world -- transforming Newman's pithily
ironic pop into sheer twanging bliss.
