Patty Griffin Flaming Red Rock Music CD Review

Flaming Red is the latest Rock CD put out by the highly talented Patty Griffin who once again has delivered a brilliant collection of tracks. I’m confident Patty Griffin fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one.

This one grabs your attention right out of the gate with Flaming Red and doesn't let go until the very last note of the very last song Peter Pan, which by the way is another great track.

Flaming Red has a pleasantly varied, mix of 13 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly superb artist. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are her own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions like love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.

Flaming Red is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it my highest recommendation. It’s quite simply great listening. A must buy for the Rock fan.

While this entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 - One Big Love, track 10 - Big Daddy, and track 13 - Peter Pan

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Flaming Red. This is a great track!
