RICHARD SCHINDELL

SOUTH OF DELIA

2007-04-23

Usually an album chock full of cover songs is less than amusing. Not South of Delia though...this one is a keeper. Richard Shindell does an awesome job making some popular hits all his own. I guess the most recognized would be "Born in the USA," by Bruce Springsteen. there are also a few new age hits that Shindell covers from Josh Ritter to Jeffrey Foucault. Shindell sounds a bit like a male Tracy Chapman on this one. A great pick with a folk feel! – MK
