trail of blood and amens Brilliant modern take on an ancient story form. Tori Amos tells the true history of America through the eyes of Native people using the traditional American Indian storyscape, map of the land through story and song. As a Native person, I was so touched by her rendition of this way of storytelling, especially since she herself is a mixed blood. It gets a little long towards the end but it is such a good album, I could care less. key tracks for me are Gold Dust, Virginia and Your Cloud. Your Cloud is about separating the People from their Land via the Trail of Tears and how is felt like it was like separating water molecules. Genius work and I praise my Native sister.

Scarlet's Walk - Another Amos Masterpiece
It is difficult for me to write a review, because I like her music so much it seems like superficiality. This is, definitely another fantastic Tori Amos album.
I highly recommend this and all her albums. This is one of the longer ones, and it's got some really great tracks on it. "Wampum Prayer" is unique in being completely vocal, like "Me and a Gun," but without the disturbing imagery of that particular song.
The opening track, "Amber Waves," is another favorite, as is the second, "A Sorta Fairytale. " They flow into each other effortlessly, creating a truly transcendental musical journey. The album continues with more favorites, with "Carbon" being another incredibly amazing track.
Five stars.
