Query: Strong, solid new work from Patti Smith

Rock 'n' roll poet/legend Patti Smith has crafted a potent collection of new songs that stimulate the brain, spirit and conscience in equal measures. This is gritty and real music, full of compelling vocals from Patti and powerful guitar playing by Lenny Kaye. There are sprawling epics such as the churning brew of "Ghandi," but as great as those are, I prefer more compact numbers like "Stride of the Mind" and the opener, "Jubilee." It's amazing and impressive that Ms. Smith is still making such important tunes after so long. Way to go Patti!My only quibble is the lack of lyrics with the new CD. I remember my disappointment at the minimal information content on her anthology set a couple of years ago. The lack of printed lyrics with Trampin' prevented me from understanding her slurred words on a couple of songs. Too bad.
