Maureen McGovern Long and Winding Road CD

Maureen McGovern's recording career began in 1972 with her #1 chart-topping Oscar-winning Gold Record "The Morning After" which earned her a Grammy nomination for "Best New Artist." She replicated this success two years later with another Oscar-winning Gold Record "We May Never Love Like This Again" then made history in 1975 as the first singer to introduce two Oscar-nominated songs in the same year. To date her career has spanned thirty-five years including recordings concerts Broadway films television radio and composing. With a voice that defies categorization &ndash from a jazzy warm pop register to a crystalline coloratura &ndash she has earned a reputation for being one of America's most popular artists. Now her newest album A LONG AND WINDING ROAD finds Maureen reconnecting with the "Baby Boomer" songs that inspired her beginnings as a folk singer in the late &rsquo60s. The album features an eclectic mix of classic and evocative tunes from such groundbreaking singer-songwriters as Joni Mitchell Jimmy Webb Paul Simon Carole King James Taylor Bob Dylan John Lennon Paul McCartney and Laura Nyro whose songs comprise as The New York Times has noted "the second half of the Great American Songbook." It&rsquos an introspective collection that&rsquos at once rousing powerful and always deeply moving featuring timeless songs that will speak to music-lovers of all ages./span
