 Kevin Kling : Wonderlure - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
From Garrison Keillor and his Prairie Home Companion to Kevin Kling's oddly perverse yet gently realistic observations of life, listeners are lucky to have such a font of talent.
Wonderlure, Kling's third album of spoken word pieces, is a budget-priced gem of quiet humor, reprising eight stories that have already appeared on the NPR staple All Things Considered.
With sparse, clear production and lacking any outside distractions (such as an audience), Wonderlure becomes a standup routine for one, as Kling spins out his tales, including the classic retelling of his horrific motorcycle crash on "Accident," where, post-smashup, his morphine dreams bring Gianni Versace to life, and he renames his left arm Scarlet O'Hara.
