Songs from an Unmarried Housewife and Mother, Greenwich Village, USA

Songs from an Unmarried Housewife and Mother, Greenwich Village, USA is the second album by Suzzy Roche, released in 2000.

Production

The album was produced by Roche and Stewart Lerman, and contains appearances from Jules Shear and Loudon Wainwright III, among others.

Critical reception

AllMusic wrote that "producers Stewart Lerman and Roche have just the right touch with her heartfelt and strong folk music; it sings out rather than sits back sounding quaint -- no easy task for a voice as sweet and old-fashioned as Roche's." SF Weekly thought that "Roche sings out strong rather than getting played down in a creaky, back porch mix." The Morning Call called the album a "much brighter second solo record," writing that it "has a stardust shuffle, a bluegrass shuffle and a bundle of healthy romantic compromises."
