Sophie B. Hawkins “The Crossing”


(Lightyear) Damn, I wish Sophie B. Hawkins made more records. Not every track on this diverse collection appeals to me, but a spooky, bluesy opening track, a ghostly prayer song built around a river = life metaphor, and a chilling version of “Sinnerman” make it easy to forgive the easy listening stuff. There’s even an acoustic version of that one song by her you know which sounds awesome.
