Joanna Newsom “Ys” (Drag City) 5 Stars Joanna Newsom belongs to that select group of musicians about whom it is impossible to be neutral: you either love her or you hate her. Her debut, “The Milk-Eyed Mender,” divided listeners with its tinkling harp, surreal lyrics, and, above all, Newsom’s lilting, often childlike, voice. “Ys,” her sophomore effort, only accentuates her most challenging qualities—and in doing so achieves perfection.

Three-point threat Kevin Reed, a senior guard who scored 14 second-half points to help Maine beat Harvard in the last game the teams played in 2004, was held to 12 points on 5-of-15 shooting. The Crimson will look to knock off another America East team tomorrow...
