Larkin, Patty

1995 High Street Records 1/1/95

I hated this when I first bought it, I thought it was a one.  Now it rates a 2 max, but not the junk that I thought it first to be.  There is a mix of styles here, sometimes more country than folk.  She is good but not good enough to buy again.

Lemper, Ute

1992 London 1/1/92

Characteristic of Piaf but with a more forced agony showing.  A very likable bit of music done in the Piaf style.  Some would say a rip off of the real, I would say who cares it is better than average pop.

John Lennon Collection, The - #507

Lennon, John

1989 Capitol 1/1/89

Lennon spoke for the generation that was the 70's.  His death was the end of that generation and the beginning of the new one.  An entire nation wept as though a son died when he was murdered.  He was the conscience of the generation, but not it's poet.  Listen to his music - in retrospect I do not under stand why he was so important to so many.

Mr. Jordan  - #68

Lennon, Julian

1989 Atlantic 1/1/89

A fine showing from the prodigy of one of the pop icons of the last half of the 20th century.  The inevitable comparisons are made to his father and he does have the same vocal characteristics but this man is good.  His name gave him the chance and he does not disappoint for having that chance

Lettermen, The

1992 Capitol 1/1/92

The quintessential College Group.  Romance was easy when this music was playing.  Songs became standards of the 1960's.  Many of them done better by the 4 Seasons.  How could dating have been done without this music.  A good remastering.  These songs carried through the 60's and 70's.  If you would have asked me I would tell you they came from the 50's.  I must be of a different generation.

Lincoln, Abbey

1992 Verve 2/24/92

This is a veteran of the Jazz world.  Her voice is showing a maturity beyond her years and is losing it's clarity.  But expression, hurrah, let us hear a cheer for Abbey.  If you like jazz this woman will interest you.  A little gospel here too in story to my father.  I love it. A lot of backup with choirs this is fun.
