	Music: Who's Next? (The Boston Phoenix . 05-18-98)
		Winterland (Elektra), Emma Townshend's debut release, begins with a poem by Emily Dickinson, a brief, graciously lurching rhyme called "Better Than Music." Townshend, who is 27, set it to asymmetrical plucked chords on a harp, and she turns the words in her mouth, like tiny gems, in a clear, breathless voice.
		She's Pete Townshend's girl by blood, but as a budding singer/songwriter Emma Townshend is a direct descendant of pop's illustrious piano women: Joni Mitchell, Laura Nyro, Kate Bush, and Tori Amos.
		Townshend's singing is as unassuming as the arrangements, and at first listen it sounds cold -- especially compared to Amos's emotional flamboyance.

	Throughout the winter and spring of 1981, British music circles reverberated with news of Pete Townshend's repeated ...
		Townshend felt compelled to speak out about Patterson's work both to repay a personal debt and to draw attention to her enormous behind-the-scenes contribution to the music industry as a whole.
		Townshend: In 1972 I wrote a story called "The Lifehouse," which explored the Sufic notion that all life and all nature -- especially anything expressed, received, or imparted -- is based on harmony or disharmony of a very physical variety.
		Townshend: To be perfectly honest, the few people I know who've undergone the treatment have all shared a hatred of the fucking box from the first moment that they saw it to the time when they happily ripped it off and chucked it away.

	The Ectophiles' Guide to Good Music - Emma Townshend (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-16)
		The instrumentation is understated and so in some ways are the songs--while she has Tori Amos' open sense of how to put a song together, she doesn't have any of Tori's theatricality.
		I'd say her album is definitely worth having, but I also already adore it...I'll admit Emma had to grow on me a bit, but I read a review of her album that proposed she is to be appreciated like fine wine, and I believe that now.
		Emma Townshend is Pete Townshend's daughter, and the cover of her album shows her pouting at the camera against a purple background, her lips rouged, her blue eyes wide and capturing the reflected corona.

	Page & Plant, Christopher Cross, Deep Purple and more — Pop Stops for 6/18/98 by John Everson
		Townshend shares little more than piercing blue eyes with her father, if this disc is a representative glimpse at her talents.
		It's supported mainly by Townshend's piano, which never provides the heartwrenching underpinning that Tori Amos achieves in the same singer-songwriter milieu.
		This is a cold, go-nowhere disc that shows Townshend can sing and play, but shouldn't sing and play her own material.

	TWAS 181: Del Amitri, Emma Townshend, Everclear, Tori Amos, Neil Finn, New Model Army, Gary Numan, Radiohead, Alanis ...
		Emma's "Five-a-Side Football" has "football" in the title, but little else to do with athletics or global harmony, which makes it a useful next step back towards a life not spent in constant vigilance against accidentally finding out the score of the game I'm taping at home.
		The second one, "Breathing Dub", retains only two syllables of Emma's vocals, which are tacked onto a blandly functional techno throb with acute sensitivity to the song's bpm and no sensitivity that I can detect to anything else.
		The concluding instrumental version removes Emma from the equation entirely, and while I can't decide whether to laugh at this reduction or scream, it does give me a way to explain what was wrong with the "Meatless Chili Con Carne" they used to serve us in college, without either of us having to eat any.

	TWAS 166: Emma Townshend, Cheri Knight, Mary Lou Lord
		The most remarkable thing about Winterland, though, to me, is that Emma is able, in the course an eleven-song first album, to both ally herself with her spiritual ancestors and advance their cause a bit herself.
		I don't think this album is incendiary enough, or so overreaches itself, that it will lead Emma to that fate, but then I didn't expect to see Jewel singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl, either.
		What I respond to, in Emma's songs, is the same essential quality I respond to in Tori's and Kate's, but also in Jewel's and Alanis Morissette's, and Mark Eitzel's and Whipping Boy's, and in Tim Cahill's travel essays and Raymond Carver's short stories, and Kevin Smith's movies, and My So-Called Life.

		Meant to be a quiet afternoon's entertainment, the solo show was blown out of all proportion when the press got word of it.

		Emma Townshend : Winterland - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		If Emma Townshend takes after her father Pete, it's through the subtle, introspective songs that have always formed the emotional core of his work.
		However, on her debut, Winterland, she sounds more like a contemporary of Tori Amos than an artist influenced by her father.

		We seem to be hearing an awful lot lately from a somewhat conspicuous group of people--those known (a bit dubiously, it seems) as "rock star children." Sean Lennon, Liv Tyler, Emma Townshend and that Jakob guy are all guilty by association--and now we have Rufus Wainwright, son of singer/songwriters Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarricle.
		This self-titled collection screams "Major Label Debut" from "Major Label Artist"--complete with SKG-group label imprint and budget, name studio players and AandR bigwig Lenny Waronker spearheading the whole thing while preaching in interviews about how sophisticated Wainwright is, etc. It's enough to make some turn the damn thing into a coaster--but that'd be a mistake.
		This one's a sleeper--it almost became my own coffee coaster; a few spins later, it had me going.
