Album Notes & Community Reviews

The second and final studio album from the legendary Greenwich Village folk singer is a breathtakingly soulful, remarkably intimate reinterpretation of traditional Americana. 'In My Own Time' pairs Karen Dalton's incredibly distinctive, deeply melancholic vocals with beautifully mellow, highly melodic country soul arrangements, evoking an intensely passionate, wonderfully bittersweet sense of longing.
