Joan Armatrading: Square the Circle (A&M)
Deborah Frost, Newsday, 12 July 1992
WHEN BONO interrupted a recent arena performance to sing a few bars of Joan Armatrading's minor '70s hit, Love & Affection, he struck the one surprise note of U2's grandiose, tape 'n' video-enhanced show. Haunted by the song's echoes and the night's ironies, one had to wonder: Whatever happened to Joan Armatrading? Square the Circle provides the answer: She's alive, well and painting her masterpiece.
