'Safe' and sound
Eccentric multi-instrumentalist Baby Dee confronts her past on a new album
By Joan Anderman
Globe Staff / February 1, 2008

Baby Dee's new album starts innocuously enough, with a quiet piano figure in waltz time. She starts to sing, something sweet about forgotten songs, and pretty soon Dee is chortling and whispering and soaring into her mezzo-soprano, sometimes in the span of a phrase, with cello and viola in tow. Will Oldham's voice is quavering in the background. The melody sounds like it came from the Middle Ages, or the Delta. It shifts gently, and madly, somehow making all kinds of sense.
