Sam Baker - Cotton

c o t t o n, the third album from Sam Baker, delivers stories of splendor, struggle, and beauty. The the final chapter in the pretty world trilogy, cotton joins its predecessors in coming to terms with surviving a terrorist attack and accepting a return to life. The three records weave stories of young mothers, farm hands, and iron workers with the central story of surviving a terrorist bomb that killed his seatmates. m e r c y, Sam�s first record, moves quietly through terror, love, and finally, beauty; p r e t t y w o r l d invokes gratitude, obligation, and again, beauty. c o t t o n explores the struggle to understand forgiveness and its absence. His jagged vocals on c o t t o n tell stories of ordinary people- a field worker, a young Mennonite, a serving girl, a traveling Nazarene, a young mother to be - each joined one to another and each joined to every one of us in our great community- our pretty world.
