COME TO THE WATERS (COLLECTOR'S EDI

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
In an effort to help the band in a serious financial jam after a label licensed the VIGILANTES OF LOVE - AUDIBLE SIGH album, and then they backed out/folded, True Tunes put out an initial run of 1000 units - that said "TRUE TUNES PRESENTS" at the top of the cover, and "LIMITED EDITION PRE-RELEASE" at the bottom of the cover. Now known as Bill Mallonee and Vigilantes of Love, the Athens, Georgia, based band got its start in 1992, as part of the active Peach State music scene which spawned R.E.M. a decade earlier. The Vigilantes' first CD, Killing Floor was co-produced by R.E.M.'s Peter Buck. Later, group released three albums for the Capricorn label, gaining much critical accolade in national publications and developing a considerable following in both the US and Europe. The band's records have ranged in sound from almost folk to harder-edged rock, but all have been held together by Bill Mallonee's strong writing, with a kind of expansive lyrical style that conjures up images of wide-open spaces even when the song is about something more intimate. Mallonee, if he were not heading a rock band would likely be the insightful folksinger, strumming and waxing philosophical. But Vigilantes of Love are decidedly electric, and their performances are almost anthemic in their power. While Mallonee and his colleagues tended to record near home in Georgia, for this album, they went to Nashville to work with producer Buddy Miller, who is well-known as a songwriter. Miller also plays various guitars, and is joined by the present Vigilante lineup, Jacob Bradley on bass and Kevin Heuer on drums. Miller brings in other guests including most notably Emmylou Harris on backing vocals on one track, plus Miller's wife Julie Miller also added some singing. Mallonee himself is heard on guitar, and he comes up with the great resounding riffs that make this album so strong. Buddy Miller was a good choice as producer for this CD.
