A soft and gentle set with vocals reminscent of Joan Baez or Judy Collins
author: In The Mix
Many people have grabbed the cloak of urban folk. So many in fact that the clothing has become threadbare. Donna Adler mends the clothing and turnes the cloak into a tapestry. All the Riches of the World is a soft and gentle set with vocals reminiscent of early Joan Baez and Judy Collins. In a different decade, this would have been an anthem - now it is a theme of grace and love. All of the songs are beautiful with some of the finest being "Otsmon," "All the Riches of the World," and "Bird Upon the Water."
