Search - Rosalie Sorrels :: Travelin' Lady Rides Again

Rosalie Sorrels remains insufficiently known to the folk music community, let alone the culture at large. She has a singular voice: ancient, wise, meditative, and lonely as the western spaces she's long lived in and celebrated. Her work has always had a patient, dignified air and a devotion to the unpretentious poetry of good folk songs. This late '70s gem features three songs by her cohort Utah Phillips, notably his classic "Going Away." Sorrels contributes two of her own best songs, "Traveling Lady" and "Postcard from India," and the mostly acoustic, country production fits the material like a pair of good, old walking shoes. --Roy Francis Kasten
