Not her very best album, but still contains several gems - Christine Lavin, for the uninitiated, is a very clever and witty songwriter who can be both poignant and wickedly funny in the same song. The Vacation of Their Lives and Artificial Means are both examples of that on this album, and Cold Pizza for Breakfast is just a flat-out terrific song, even if it has no Deep Meaning. The live interview segments on this album are, well, lively, and a lot of fun. Some of the other songs are not as sharp, such as The Danger, but overall this is a very good album.
