Many of Lord’s fans view the live album as a refreshing follow-up to her major label debut in 1998, which was produced in a studio with a band. One purist commented, “Mary Lou Lord is best just stripped down to an acoustic guitar. You can’t get any closer to real sound than that.

...Harvard misses hearing the rationale for why students on the opposite side of the aisle vote the way they do. There are a wealth of reasons why one chooses to vote Republican, including views about the role of the federal government, personal liberty, tax policy and national defense. The label “Republican” is treated negatively at Harvard because it implies a divergence from the center, both in perceived stances on the “hot three” and in subject matter deemed important for political discussion...
