CONCERTS FOR A LANDMINE FREE WORLD

CD

Compiled from benefits held in December 1999 and 2000 in California and Canada, these acoustic performances document a who's who of country-folk singer-songwriters united by Emmylou Harris's profound commitment to the anti-landmine movement.

 

The performances are never less than emotionally riveting, though Guy Clark, John Prine, and especially Kris Kristofferson, his jocund but weathered version of the obscure "Shipwrecked in the Eighties" has a fool's wisdom lighten the solemn tone.

 

Only Nanci Griffith strikes a sanctimonious note; the earned indignation of Bruce Cockburn's Mines of Mozambique" cuts much closer to the political bone.

 

The standout track, though, is Harris's mystical opener, "The Pearl"--sung with a harrowing elegance that trumps the Red Dirt Girl version--although Terry Allen's absurd, poignant pastiche "Wilderness of This World" is a close second.

 

 

1. The Pearl - Emmylou Harris

2. Big Ol' Goofy World - John Prine

3. Cold Dog Soup - Guy Clark with Verlon Thompson

4. This Shirt - Mary Chapin Carpenter

5. Mines of Mozambique - Bruce Cockburn

6. It's a Hard Life - Nanci Griffith

7. Morphine - Gillian Welch & David Rawlings

8. Mary - Patty Griffin

9. Shipwrecked - Kris Kristofferson

10. Wilderness of This World - Terry Allen

11. Christmas in Washington - Steve Earle
