Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood, O Brother, Where Art Thou? producer T Bone Burnett
has compiled another gently nostalgic gem. Filled with covers of jazz standards, sparse blues
picking, and traditional Cajun pieces, Sisterhood matches Brother in ambiance and impeccable
musicianship. The highlights are numerous: Bob Dylan's lively song waltzes with a raspy narrative,
Lauryn Hill uses acoustic plucking to complement her soulful croon, and Bob Schneider contributes
an understated love-ballad rumbling with piano. Even the cover songs are first-rate; Macy Gray
jive-jumps through a faithful Billie Holiday cover, and Tony Bennett slows things down with a dapper
and distinguished Nat "King" Cole homage. Despite the diffuse genres covered, the superior quality
of Sisterhood's songs renders these differences negligible, and the album's pacing ensures a pleasing
alternation of styles that never lags. In fact, there's nary a bad song on the entire album.
The divine secret's out--Sisterhood is an essential listen. -Annie Zaleski
