Album Description Renowned songwriter Amy Rigby?s fifth album finds the singer, who began her solo career as the Mod Housewife, bringing it all back home. Hailed for her keen eye and sharp wit in tracing the vagaries and victories of modern romance, her new release finds Rigby promising "I Don't Want To Talk About Love No More." But, of course, she does - getting to the heart of the matter and the punch line in due course. Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsShe got back up again Don Ciccone | san francisco, california | 09/08/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "I didn't think she could top her last album but she did. INCREDIBLE. "Rasputin" is the kind of song Lou Reed should be writing. And it gets better and better from there...one killer track after another. This is her most powerful album yet. Every song is right in your face. It's fun, yet serious. Hooks galore. Great production. Super-tight band. Complete success." Rolling Stone Magazine Review spanky | New York, NY | 09/01/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "For nearly a decade, this divorced, middle aged New York mom has been turning out pop-wise confessionals with the consistancy and charm of a Nashville Pro - most notably on her 1996 debut "Dairy Of A Mod Housewife". On her fifth album she makes pretty, witty out of brutal honesty and some apparently deserved bitterness. Wether comparing herself to Rasputin or dreaming of quality time with Joey Ramone, her biting humor and often bouyant melodies ensure that "Little Fugitive" never gets mopey or precious. Billboard Magazine Review On the first track of singer/songwriter Amy Rigby's fifth album, the one-time "mod housewife" wittily compares herself to czarist Russia's most infamous and rakish character. Odd entrance? Seemingly so, but the sly humor and infectious melody of "Like Rasputin" demands repeat spins. The rest of the 12-song package is equally rewarding, whether Rigby is questioning why her new husband's ex-wife has become a friend ("The Trouble With Jeanie"), dreaming of punk dancing with Joey Ramone or brilliantly tapping into the psychedelic sonics of "Revolver"-era Beatles ("So You Know Now"). Rigby's raw-rockin' delivery and fed-up-with-cheap-crap themes are most prominent, yet she also plays it jaunty on "Needy Men," Roche-like folky with the harmony-rich "Girls Got It Bad" and nostalgic on "Always With Me." Recorded in two days in New York with guitarist Jon Graboff as co-producer, "Little Fugitive" is one of the best pop/rock albums of the year. -Dan Ouellette " In a world of increasingly marginal and crappy music... Travis Dubya McGee Bickle | Texas Quail Hunting Camp | 11/29/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "...Amy Rigby just keeps getting better. I thought she had really hit one out of the park, topping her usual already high standards, with "Till the Wheels Fall Off", but this one is, amazingly, even better...You'll laugh, you'll cry. Nobody does this kind of tragicomic poignancy better, with the exception of Loudon Wainwright III.
Also, if you get the chance to see her live, don't pass it up. She puts on an incredibly rockin', generous and rambling show... And, if all the above isn't enough to sell you, remember: the woman danced with Joey Ramone!" |
