Full article:
Olson's career has been more interesting than most, having progressed from a late 70s punk band, The Violators, to collaborating with Bob Dylan, movie roles, working with Gene Clark and finally her acclaimed solo career. Today she's among the most in-demand singers in country-rock and this set of duets with Peter Case, Clem Burke, Richie Furay and others shows why. From Del Shannon's Keep Searchin' to The Byrds' She Don't Care About Time and Moby Grape's 8.05 the song choices are astute and ideally suited to the voices on offer. The only downer is the dull Look What You've Done which leans too heavily on You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin' be really convincing.
