“Adieu False Heart”
“This teaming of Linda Ronstadt and Cajun folk traditionalist Ann Savoy, billing themselves as the Zozo Sisters, shows how wide is the musical range of bitter sweetness. The harmonies and shared lead vocals offer a complementary contrast between Ronstadt’s purity of tone and Savoy’s more piquant expressiveness. The arrangements turn folk songs into art songs, drawing as much upon chamber strings as Cajun fiddle and accordion. Songs include “I Can’t Get Over You,” with husband Buddy Miller on guitar) and Richard Thompson (“King of Bohemia,” “Burns’ Supper”) and a disarming revival of the Left Banke’s 1960s hit “Walk Away Renee.”
