	Patti Scialfa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Vivienne "Patti" Scialfa ("Skal-fa") (born July 29, 1953 in Deal, New Jersey) is an American singer, songwriter, and guitarist, best known for being a bandmate, and later wife, of rock star Bruce Springsteen.
		Scialfa was born in Monmouth County, a relatively wealthy section of the state.
		Nevertheless, Scialfa has been forced to tolerate, if not overcome, the impression that her own career as a lead singer is a result of her marriage to Springsteen and not a result of her own talent.

		A lot of people bent over backward last week to treat musician Patti Scialfa, traveling the talk show circuit flogging her record "23rd Street Lullaby," as if she were any other rock chick with an album to sell.
		Scialfa's promise that she's "got a bottle of wine, a bag of tricks" and "a place for you under my fingertips" is a gentle bit of eroticism, but could be aimed at her guitar as easily as at a man. She's in love with herself and the way she's making her living.
		Maybe that's what 1988 was for Scialfa, the moment that she realized that she got the guy and the life she never thought would be hers, and in doing so, cut herself off completely from whatever had been hers and hers alone in New York City.

		Scialfa, who has an abiding love of confessional singer-songwriters ranging from Laura Nyro to PJ Harvey, knows that inordinate attention is paid to her lyrics, especially the ones about relationships.
		For Scialfa, a solo career is a tightrope walk: To make too little of her E Street affiliation would be to lose a valuable advantage in a crowded marketplace; to make too much would be tacky.
		Scialfa admits to no professional jealousy: She swears that she never, ever has wished to have the spotlight to herself while onstage with the band.

		As Patti sings about the Hudson river, we realize it was just as much a friend to her as Rose, the wise old waitress that taught her how to balance change and serve coffee.
		Patti's voice is raw, emotional, full of wisdom, and wonderfully unique-- a welcome change from the processed and overproduced voices that much of the music industry is marketing today.

		Scialfa, who joined Springsteen's E Street Band in 1984, needed an opening song for the album.

		Ignoring the fact that Patti Scialfa is married to Bruce Springsteen, it's easy to hear the musical cache she brings to the table, particularly within the confines of 23RD STREET LULLABY, her second album in over a decade.
		Scialfa uses her days spent as a struggling New York City musician in the late 1970s and early '80s for inspiration, and rang up a few buddies from back in that time of her life.
		Reminiscing about her days in the Chelsea section of Manhattan (see the atmospheric title cut), Scialfa writes about bad seeds (a twangy "City Boys"), fun-seeking waitresses (the doo-wop harmony-laden "Rose"), and grease monkeys (a wistful "Chelsea Avenue").

		It’s nigh-impossible to shake the associations but, then again, Patti doesn’t exactly discourage them by naming her first solo album in 11 years 23rd Street Lullaby and peppering her songs with references to bohemian life on the mean streets of the Big Apple.
		It’s city music for grownups, and Patti delivers her tales with an unflinching lack of sentimentality and a fine eye for detail.
		Patti writes well, and there are memorable lines throughout this album.

		Patti Scialfa carries on the bohemian-soul tradition of Laura Nyro and Rickie Lee Jones.
		Her voice is a complicated thing, both silken and gritty; she’s probably the only singer who calls to mind both Ronnie Spector and Bob Dylan.
		It’s also a retro concept album, with Scialfa’s songs looking back to her days as a struggling singer in New York.

	Boston.com / A&E / Music / CD reviews / Patti Scialfa: 23rd Street Lullaby
		By all appearances, Patti Scialfa should be on top of the world.
		Scialfa also over-emotes at times, as on "Chelsea Avenue" with its line "didn't we love to love to love." There are a couple of fun songs in the mildly funky "City Boys" and the picaresque title track (about drinking wine and recalling romance), but these are the exceptions.
		While no one expects her to sing about her marriage to the notoriously private Springsteen, it would have been nice to have something more connected to the modern era.
