Review of Gillian Welch: In her own words


Most of the pieces in this series offer more than a glimpse into the life of a musician, and many treat the listener to stories and reflections that reach well beyond the music itself. We listen to Gillian, and come away (at least I did) with a sense of a strong, thoughtful woman who deeply understands the value and power of the people's music, someone with something important to say about how we live.
