Buffy Sainte-Marie "Coincidence And Likely Stories"

1992 | Genre: Folk | Songwriter

One of the most striking voices of the contemporary folk music movement of the 1960s, Buffy Sainte-Marie has enjoyed a career far broader than the "protest singer" category into which she has sometimes been placed.

She has written and lectured on native-American affairs, written poetry and screenplays, and composed film scores, as well as writing, recording, and performing songs in styles ranging from folk to rock and from art song to electronic music. But while she has become known for love songs like "Until It's Time for You to Go," Sainte-Marie has never abandoned the social and political concerns that marked her early work. And though she resists the label of "protest song," she admitted to Paul Sexton of Billboard, "The only reason I ever became a singer in the first place was because I had something to say."

In 1992 Sainte-Marie re-emerged with Coincidence and Likely Stories, which Sexton called "a striking, modern, and thoughtful collection of rock'n'roll songs that updates Sainte-Marie's musical image." She produced the album in her home studio using state-of-the-art computer technology. While many of the lyrics addressed familiar themes, the modern pop sound displayed on Coincidence was a far cry from the acoustic guitar and mouth-bow of her earliest records. "In lesser hands, the washes of synthesized sounds would be an egregious mistake, but Sainte-Marie has artfully managed to tame the technology and bend it to her needs," wrote Tom Graves in Rolling Stone. "The result is eleven songs that have deep thematic resonance and that are among her most appealing work." In compositions about the environment, government corruption, and the oppression of native Americans, as well as in love songs, Sainte-Marie demonstrated that her long leave of absence had diminished neither the intensity nor the inventiveness of her music, nor her ambition to tackle major issues in, as she remarked to Maclean's contributor Turbide, "the kind of songs that would make as much sense in ancient Rome as they would today."
