An experimental fusion of poetry and music by the Patti Smith Group.
This 1979 album showcased her poetic and rock talents in a more refined way. The title track, "Wave," weaves abstract yet powerful words that evoke the emotional ups and downs of ocean waves. Produced by Todd Rundgren, the album's sound is more pop and accessible than her previous album, without compromising her artistry.
