Rachel Syme writes about the singer-songwriter Nanci Griffith’s work and life.
The tribute album was originally conceived before Griffith’s death, by the former Rounder Records president John P. Strohm. It now serves as a kind of musical memorial. Jarosz sings the first song on “More Than a Whisper”: a gentle folk cover of “You Can’t Go Home Again,” a ballad off Griffith’s second album, from 1982, “Poet in My Window.
Nashville executives, loathe to lose more artists to pop radio, rushed to sign a new class of grittier, harder-edged artists such as Earle, Lyle Lovett, k. d. lang, and Ricky Skaggs. Griffith was a gregarious member of the country-folk scene that forged many of these artists—she invited a young Lyle Lovett to perform onstage at Anderson Fair, after he interviewed her for his college newspaper—but her tenderhearted songs made her seem out of step with her harder-edged peers.
