End of the Summer by Dar Williams
End of the Summer is an album by Dar Williams, released in 1997. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “Road Buddy”, on 1 list with a best position of #726.
End of the Summer, Dar Williams's third album, arrived on Razor & Tie on July 15, 1997, and it's the work of a pop-folk singer-songwriter out of Mount Kisco, New York, a folk festival regular who has shared bills on tour with the likes of Ani DiFranco, Shawn Colvin and Patty Griffin.
It closes, of all things, with a cover of the Kinks' "Better Things", borrowed from their 1981 album Give the People What They Want, a warm and wry way to turn out the lights. Her own songs held up in heavy company, too: Joan Baez recorded "If I Wrote You" for her album Gone from Danger.
