ALBUM REVIEW: Jazz guitarist Margaret Slovak pulls beauty out of tragedy and triumph.
Real life often serves as inspiration for countless devotees of the Euterpean muse. Between a cancer diagnosis for her spouse, journalist Brad Buchholz , the premature death of her sister Anne, and her own struggles with possible career-ending injuries after a car accident, Austin-based jazz guitarist Margaret Slovak has more animus than most. Joined by drummer Michael Sarin and bassist Harvie S., she lets it all out on her fourth album,.
Alternating between classical and electric guitars, Slovak pays tribute to her sibling's struggle on"Song for Anne" and"Forty-Four," and salutes her husband's perseverance on the title tune. Another pair of testimonials add to the elegiac tone: the waltzing"Courage, Truth and Hope," dedicated to journalist Bill Moyers, and the lovely"Flowers for Marie," nodding to a beloved neighbor.
