The American singer / songwriter Joe Henry is now over fifty and that can be heard on the album Reverie. On his twelfth studio album, Henry sings about the difficult things in life and gives his vision of the world today. Henry may be a bit older, but there is absolutely no question of a midlife crisis and lack of inspiration. The proof can be found in this fourteen track album that lasts no less
… than an hour. All songs start with everyday sounds from the street, so that the stories are quickly drawn into the audience. As if the listener is present in Henry's dream world. Highlights are Odetta, in which Henry sings about the singer of the same name, Piano Furnace and the emotional Eyes Out For You. With his warm voice, Joe Henry delivers an atmospheric album that will provide many living rooms with warmth.more
