Lauren Fincham - Show and Tell (Twelfth House Records) 1997   (IG)

by Alex Teitz

Lauren Fincham's Show and Tell is a journey of introspection, and dream. It is filled with Fincham's superb ability with both acoustic and twelve string guitars. Fincham is joined by a band consisting of Mike Pearson (bass), Stephanie Winters and Nancy Cohan (cello), Brian Homan (dobro), Craig Spirko (organ and keyboard), and David Jacks (drums). Many other artists help on other tracks.

Show and Tell is filled with imaginary from the first song. "Something in the AIr" begins the CD with a haunting opening that makes it feel as if the air is folding nearby. From that point forward the path appears. "Trading Pieces" is about being alone. "Camels and Faith" is about the end of a relationship and showcases Fincham's 12-string ability. "Show and Tell" is about a bad relationship and the baggage of it. Pay attention to Nancy Cohan's cello on this piece.

Turn off the lights, and hear every word and note that Fincham conveys. Show and Tell will speak to you.
