"***1/2 Stars. Honoring the memory of her railroad-working father, singer LaRose teams with guitarist Marc Ribot, saxophonist/bass clarinetist Jeff Lederer and other denizens of the New York downtown scene in inventing a distinct, resounding music shaped by hyper-active imaginations that pack bitter irony into compressed intensity. Before they're finished, LaRose's crew has wreaked wonderful havoc on old train songs and on songs associated with John Lennon, Led Zeppelin and the Protestant sect know as the Shakers. LaRose may be daddy's little girl, but her gene pool also includes Ornette Coleman, Jimmy Page and Woody Guthrie."
