Polish

This is Polish rock and pop star Urszula's live acoustic album, recorded in Warsaw and in other places, featuring a plethora of works by her production and songwriting teams as well as some very interesting covers. For instance, who would have thought in a million years that a Polish rocker who has every bit the same credibility that Joan Jett, Sheryl Crow, or Joan Osborne has in the U.S. would open her set with an instrumental version of Peter Green's Oh Well?, or wait until near the end of her set to cover -- again in an acoustic live gig -- the Troggs' Wild Thing?

Stare Dobre Malzenstwo have been around awhile with at least eight albums of their unique style of tender folk music. Czarny Blues is their all-time bestselling release, filled with cozy, melancholy songs made from guitar, violin, bass, and occasional harmonica. Przechyla Sie (that's pshehiwa sheh) is a lovely, brief number featuring this combo's light, nimble touch and comely harmonies. Zawirowat Swiat is a sweet, lilting tune with pastoral highlights and beautiful female background vocals, while Wygladaja Przez Okno haunts with an aching violin and descending vocal pattern. This is a CD that has long pleased the listeners of Poland and just may be the newest little gem in any American folk listener's collection. --Karen Karleski
