Editorial Review: GRAMMY® AWARD WINNER MARC COHN RETURNS WITH HIS FIRST STUDIO ALBUM IN NEARLY A DECADE MARC COHN Join The Parade It has been nearly a decade since American singer/songwriter Marc Cohn last released a studio album. It has been fifteen years (1992) since he won the Grammy® Award for Best New Artist. Best known for his colossal hit "Walking In Memphis," Cohn returns with a new, passionate and poignant recording JOIN THE PARADE, to be released on October 9th. JOIN THE PARADE is the product of a personal journey. A recording of 10 songs that share a common theme woven from both Cohn's empathic observations after Hurricane Katrina and from a 2005 incident during which the singer found himself the victim of a carjacking in Denver, which left him with a gunshot wound to the head. JOIN THE PARADE is introspective. It is one man's look at the beauty of life through its fragility--spiritually moving and inspirational. Co-produced by long-time guitarist and Bob Dylan band member Charlie Sexton, the album was recorded over a period of a year both in New York, Los Angeles and Austin, Texas. JOIN THE PARADE is a long overdue album that serves to solidify Cohn's already well-known reputation as a great American songwriter.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Typical, solid Cohn
I'd call this an average Marc Cohn album, but an average Cohn album is an excellent album. Nothing earthshaking or groundbreaking, but a fine listen that gets better each time.
Rating: - Nice to have Cohn back.
Obviously prolific isn't a word we'll use to describe Marc Cohn but each of his previous three albums were strong works and "Join the Parade" continues the trend. Mr. Cohn's biggest talent is in his writing of lyrics, there is nothing generic or pat in what he writes. His songs tell stories and that makes him one of the few singers out there who bring real depth to pop music. If you enjoyed Mr. Cohn's previous work you'll enjoy this album. One can only hope we don't have to wait ten years for another ... Read More
Rating: - Tired and uninspired
I own all of Marc Cohn's previous albums / cd's. The first two I loved, the third I liked a lot - Healing Hands is one of my favorite songs - but Join The Parade is just flat, bland, boring. Not worth the very long wait!
Rating: - He's back
Mark Cohn is back and this cd is very good. the opening song "Listening to Levon" is great. All the songs are good. You will not go wrong with this one.
Rating: - Patience is rewarded
The music is not catchy or immediately top tapping. However if you allow the music time to dig it's claws in, there are several tracks that pay huge dividends. Track 4,5 and 6 for me are nearly daily habits for me. If your not signing along to the chorus on track 6..."Get Down On Your Kness...", then go back and break out some Wham.
It's easily his best CD since his 1991 self titled effort.
