Desertshore

"By comparison [to The marble index], 1970's Desertshore feels almost airy. There is more in the way of light and shade: Janitor of Lunacy and Mütterlein are cut from the same oppressive cloth as the album's predecessor, but the unaccompanied vocal of My Only Child boasts a beautiful melody, austere and moving".

"Like its immediate predecessor, Desertshore enjoyed negligible commercial success - certainly not enough to persuade Warner Brothers to offer her another album. Neither did it achieve the same critical status, although some listeners found it easier to appreciate, touched by the feelings of loss and regret that come through much more clearly than the emotions so opaquely expressed in The Marble Index".
