Synopsis
Album Description Timms is best known for her involvement with the Mekons and has released several solo CDs over the years. The songs on this record were written by Ryan Adams, Mark Eitzel, Kevin Coyne, Johnny Dowd, Mekons, Jon Langford, and Sean Garrison. They cover war, marriage, abandonment, and the inability to articulate, and they range from the apologetic to the analytical. "Ms. Timms blends rapture and disenchantment in a way that recalls those old cliches about why caged birds sing. Her voice, a secretive murmur refined by her native English accent, is the stuff of lullabies"--The NY Times. Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsAn excellent solo offering Stevengine | Los Angeles | 09/12/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "I happened to see Sally Timms tonight, and her live show was fantastic, so I purchased this record, and was even more pleasantly surprised. Different from her work with the Mekons, it at times sounds like a Yann Tiersen record, and at others, like Broadcast, but it is all held together by Timms haunting voice. It's a great album, and I highly recommend you pick it up."
