Nanci Griffith's Ruby's Torch

10/02/06
. (V Entertainment Network) Rounder Records is pleased to announce the November 14th release of Ruby's Torch, a new album by Grammy-winning, singer-songwriter and "folkabilly" artist Nanci Griffith. Ruby's Torch is a collection of intimate torch songs, some penned by Griffith, others by some of her musical heroes. 'Recording an entire record of torch songs has been a dream come true for me,' says Griffith 'and something my listeners have been asking me to do for many years.'

Rather than relying on tried-and-true torch standards, she pays homage to an eclectic array of influences on Ruby's Torch .

2. IF THESE WALLS COULD SPEAK (Jimmy Webb)
3. RUBY'S ARMS (Tom Waits)
4. NEVER BE THE SUN (Donaugh Long)
5. BLUER THAN BLUE (Charles Goodrum)
6. BRAVE COMPANION OF THE ROAD (Nanci Griffith)
