Review

With the release of her 18th album, COMMON DREAM, Rita MacNeil turns a spiritual corner. It's an eclectic blend of Gospel that sways from the simple acoustic opening of the title cut to the reverent country and bluegrass strains of `Peace In The Valley' and then onto the celebratory sounds of revival in `Said I Wasn't Gonna Tell Nobody' (a song which was also sung recently by MacNeil as a duet with the legendary Patti LaBelle).

“It's not about religion” notes Rita, “it's about the common dream people have of love, joy and peace. I think most people believe in a greater power. In times of sadness and celebration we search for meaning and understanding and for me, that comfort is found through music.”

Featuring 11 songs penned by MacNeil herself, COMMON DREAM resonates passionately with a voice that holds you in sorrow and celebrates with you in joy. The result is a unique 15-track collection weaving threads of faith, comfort and the spiritual in a way that, as Rita describes, `speaks to the soul'. It's a celebration, a walk with faith, and above all else, a COMMON DREAM from an extraordinary artist.
