Summary: Gospel blues 2010-05-24
Comment: For someone who claims not to be a 'believer'(per Ms. Griffin's own admission)this project is just plain soulful. Love the remixed and quirky arrangements. Memorable. Highly recommend.

Summary: Toe Tappers 2010-05-24
Comment: I saw Patty Griffin and Buddy Miller perform much of this material prior to buying the CD, otherwise I'm not sure I would have added "Downtown Church" to my Patty Griffin collection. I'm not one to listen often to Gospel, or BlueGrass, or Country; but I still like this collection of songs. You can't escape the joy in this music. Ms. Griffin's voice is in fine form, and the close harmonies recorded live give the feeling of an impromptu sing-a-long. It's fun, and sweet, even when the words are a little bit sad.

Comment: A terrific album, saw Patty Griffin interviewed on CBS Sunday Morning several weeks ago, and ordered this cd, very glad I did!

Downtown Church
This is an arresting creation. It attests to what Gospel music, Soul music has deeply tried to convey through the years, in the spirit of it all is a spirit that cannot help but to speak through the calling of great and not so great songs; little, triumphant songs that barely lift the cross but most lovingly raise the message.
Patty Griffin does serve, that is as eloquent as I can be here.
The musician, the churched, the unchurched, the grieving, the wanderers- find your peace here. Downtown Church.
"...You're coming home to me, just remember..."
