CHRISTGAU CONSUMER GUIDE
"ANY OLD TIME STRING BAND" (Arhoolie):: The somewhat creaky musicianship of this all-woman quintet doesn't bother me, but if you have trouble putting your voice on a note and keeping it there, it's a mistake to let on that you care. Song finds: "Home in Pasadena" and (from old-timey hero Bing Crosby) "C-U-B-A." (Available from Disconnection, Box 563, NYC 10013.)
