Two of Christine Lavin's picks for her Website's Top 46 Albums list, A Thousand Dreams and Home of Whispers,
are from Lori Lieberman, a California- based singer/songwriter of exceptional talent.
Lori's exquisite voice and melodies, and brilliant ...
Full Descriptionlyrics, combine with state-of-the-art recording techniques to create two gemlike albums.
If you're going to purchase only one of Lori's albums, start with A Thousand Dreams.
It begins with a beautifully interpreted cover of Paul Simon's "Song For The Asking," an appropriate prologue
for the songs that follow, all of them Lori's except for "I'll Never Have The Heart (To Leave This Town)."
The album ends with the title track, a moving tribute to a departed friend, with accompaniment by members
of the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles.
Back in the early '70s Lori Lieberman made the original recording of "Killing Me Softly,"
which was heard by Roberta Flack, and the rest is history.
But for my money, Lori's performance is the one that all others should be judged by
and it's a thrill that you can now hear her original interpretation of that brilliant song on A Thousand Dreams.
All the songs on this disk and Home ofWhispers are as moving as "Killing Me Softly.
" These albums are astonishly beautiful... I absolutely love them!
