On most of this guitar-strumming troubadour's first major-label album, producer David Kahne has stifled the spunk that makes the two cuts produced by the artist herself ("I Don't Sleep, I Drink Coffee Instead" and "Mint Juleps and Needles") so invigorating. Behind the pallid production, Kahn delivers her witty, thoughtful lyrics in a sometimes whiny, though not insufferable, voice. This article is copyright 1992 The Los Angeles Times Home Edition.
