Loudon Wainwright III - Loudon Wainwright III
Review by Kristine Kline
Loudon Wainwright III's self-titled album is a true masterpiece of folk music. The album is a collection of his best works, showcasing his unique style and skillful songwriting. Loudon's voice is raw and emotional, delivering each song with a sense of urgency and conviction.
The album opens with the track "School Days," a nostalgic look back at the trials and tribulations of youth. The lyrics are witty and insightful, capturing the essence of growing up in a way that only Loudon can. The album continues with "Dead Skunk," a humorous take on roadkill that has become a classic in its own right.
Throughout the album, Loudon tackles a variety of topics, from love and heartbreak to politics and social issues. Each song is crafted with care, and the instrumentation is simple and effective, allowing the lyrics to take center stage.
