Nanci Griffith has worn her success well, standing out as one of the most successful Texas singer/songwriters alongside Lyle Lovett. Her album "Flyer" is a testament to her unique approach, as she has achieved this success on her own terms. This collection of original songs is both jaunty and sometimes driving, exploring the politics of the heart with a distinctive flair.
"Flyer" features a number of effective guest artists, including members of the Counting Crows, Dire Straits, and even R.E.M., adding depth and variety to the album. Despite these collaborations, the album remains central to Griffith's growing body of work, showcasing some of her most poetic and concise songs. It moves beyond a purely Texas folk style into the realm of folk-rock, while still staying true to her narrative gifts. As Roy Kasten notes, "Flyer" is a significant addition to her discography.
This product is an authorized CD-R and is manufactured on demand, ensuring that fans can enjoy Griffith's music in a format that suits their needs. With its blend of heartfelt lyrics and engaging melodies, "Flyer" continues to resonate with listeners, solidifying Nanci Griffith's place in the music world.
