Singer/songwriter Janis Ian followed up her understated masterwork Aftertones (1976) with this long-player, which includes some equally engaging and varied material. Although she’d eventually return to using studio heavies for the remainder of her ’70s and early-’80s output, Miracle Row (1977) prominently features Ian’s touring band, which highlights the respective talents of Claire Bay (vocals), and a power trio of Jeff Layton (bass/horns/horn arrangements), Stu Woods (bass), and Barry Lazarowitz (drums/percussion). Each of the musicians were themselves recording session stalwarts and had interacted with the artist in various capacities for several years. Never one to shy away from controversial or blatant social observations, "Party Lights" is one of Ian’s more personal exposes, dealing with the drug-fuelled Jekyll and Hyde decadence of the mid-to-late ’70s. The melody is penetrating with a sense of foreboding drama, which is evident musically as well as lyrically. "Miracle Row"/ "Maria" adopts a lilting tropical air behind some of Ian’s most affective contributions on the album and deal, although somewhat obliquely, with her own sexuality.
