Overview
Concrete Blondes newest album Mojave provides a musical postcardfrom the edge of civilization, where lonely strips of asphalt wind their waythrough the coyotes backyard. Now the denizens of the desert that gave the albumits name, singer/bassist Johnette Napolitano, guitarist Jim Mankey and drummerGabriel Ramirez, provide a soundtrack to the scenic Southwest.The deserts strange beauty is reflected throughout Mojave, from the shadowy,bass-driven opening track A Road to the sprawling soundscapes and ghostlyvocals of My Tornado At Rest. Spirit animals come crawling out of the aridnight, with reptiles shedding skin in Snakes and Johnette explainingthe mysterious desert dogs on Hey Coyote. The specter-like quality of thedeserts night sky is also captured in a haunting cover of (Ghost) Riders In TheSky, the old Western chestnut re-popularized by Southern rockers TheOutlaws in the early 80s. Standard Jewel Case.
