the First new release in 10 years from Anti-Folk co-founder “Beloved Stranger” could be called her most political album; its foot-stomping “When Did Jesus Become a Republican?” certainly qualifies it as political, if not partisan CD. But there are aspects to the album which are also both personal and universal. “Forty Cent Raise” is about trying to support a family with a low paying job. Joining her on the song is John Doe, who makes several guest appearances on the album along with Lenny Kaye, Dave Alvin and Peter Case.
