The Subway Series (2001)

"Singer/songwriter Christine Lavin has two distinct approaches to folk music: she can deliver humorous commentaries on the absurdity of modern life, or detailed observations on contemporary relationships. On Subway Series, a live recording for broadcast, she comfortably wears both hats. (...) One of the best things about Subway Series is the between-song patter by Lavin, who is clearly in her element as she talks, tells stories, and jokes with the audience. The audience enjoys every minute of it, and this infectious attitude spills over to the listener. Subway Series is a good addition to Lavin's catalog and will be appreciated by fans and lovers of clever folk music". (Ronnie D. Lankford jr., Allmusic).
