The Canadian trio The Be Good Tanyas compares the music of the third album Hello Love to a quilt. Such a quilted blanket consists of several layers and all kinds of textiles can be processed in it. The music of Sam Parton, Trish Klein and Frazey Ford is also layered and harks back to several American roots styles, especially folk traditionals, always staying true to the essence of the music. No
… production gimmicks, in which all edges are smoothed out, but human music with all the imperfections that go with it, characterized by deep melancholy and nostalgia. Yet they are children of this time because in addition to their own songs, some traditionals and a cover of Mississippi John Hurt we hear renditions of Neil Young's For The Turnstiles (from his album On The Beach) and When Doves Cry by Prince (the hidden track). A guest appearance is from Jolie Holland, who was once part of the group and later became successful as a solo artist. (MS)more
