A much more contemporary record than her previous releases,
Living shows
Judy Collins stretching out, although at times she could be said to be stretching a little too far.
Living contains her versions of
Ian Tyson's "Four Strong Winds,"
Leonard Cohen's "Famous Blue Raincoat" and
Joni Mitchell's "Chelsea Morning." However, as with her version of
Bob Dylan's "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues," it also shows that while she interprets songs well, not all songs fit well into the
Collins style. ~ James Chrispell
