Album Review
A brisk song with tempo and lyrical substance, "Trouble With Angels" is one of only two songs on this 11th studio release from Mattea that isn't a ballad. Written and recorded during a time when she was facing the declining health of her father, much of the music on The Innocent Years is about the tender mercies of life: love, family relationships, faith in God, perseverance, commitment, and growing old. Most notably poignant is "That's the Deal," a tribute to her father and the health struggles he's recently faced. The album gets high marks for vocal collaborations with the likes of Suzy Bogguss, Alison Krauss, and pop singer Graham Nash. And the album's bonus track, "BFD," a crowd favorite in her live shows, ends the album on a playful note.
Customer Reviews
Perhaps her best?
I'm not sure, this album is less country sounding than some of her pervious it has more of a folk vibe. All the more reason to love it. 'The Innocent Years will take you straight back to your youth no matter how old you are, and this is an amzing cover of 'Trouble With Angels' 'Calling My Name' is another great highlight with it's words swift as reality & a terrific musical arrangement to follow. The album slows a bit after this song but it doesn't wear out by any means. You need to buy it.
