.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .."Concrete World and the Lover's Dream by Anne Weiss is a funk/blues solo female album with a poetic flair... .. .. Anne's voice is one of the more well known in Oregon and for good reason. She sings with her heart and soul. She possesses that great blues quality of grit and grace, and her lyrics are great life stories. Big name artists such as Janis Joplin and Tracy Chapman come to mind when listening to Anne's outstanding music. .. .. Anne's musical background is quite diverse and she brings that influence to the arrangements. Hints of urban and latin music are sprinkled throughout the CD, as well as a few other surprises. The band ties the sound together nicely, and are superior musicians. .. .. Highlights include Special Delivery with its assortment of sounds. You get great vocals, blues, street beats and Motown horns on this track... .. The title track Concrete World and the Lover's Dream makes Blackbird pop into your head in the beginning and then evolves into a dirge with a powerful message.
