Treasures Left Behind: Remembering Kate Wolf
A Tribute Album
Produced by Nina Gerber Released 1998

Kate Wolf's songs still ring true years after her death. This loving tribute contains
14 heartfelt covers culled from the repertoire of the singer/songwriter, who died of
leukemia in 1986. From Kathy Mattea's serene opener, "Give Yourself to Love," to
Terry Garthwaite's near-tears closer, "Thinking About You," it's apparent that
all involved in the project (from the contributing artists to producer Nina Gerber, who
collaborated with Wolf through much of her career) hold Wolf in the highest esteem.
Highlights here include Dave Alvin's gruff "These Times We're Living In," Nanci
Griffith's mournful "Friend of Mine," and Rosalie Sorrels's sweet-as-an-angel
version of "In China or a Woman's Heart." -- |
