Album
At once a departure and a return, The Charity of Night represents a change from the folk rock stylings of his previous two albums, having more in common with earlier jazz-inflected works such as Night Vision. Shades of light and shadow play through the album's theme of reflection and memory: Cockburn recalls many events of his past, taking stock and coming to grips with them.

Why doesn't Toronto's Bruce Cockburn have the same high-level critical reputation and midlevel cult following as Richard Thompson After all, they're both dazzling, Celtic-Islamic rock guitar pickers and the writers of vivid if gloomy songs which they deliver in foggy baritones. Imagery of night and darkness, shadow and storm pervades Bruce Cockburns twenty-third album and first on Rykodisc, The Charity of Night. Held in high regard for his poetic, innovative, often provocative songwriting, Cockburns lyrical introspection sometimes leads him to the more secret corridors of the heart and soul. The album earned Cockburn's first Canadian gold record award in 1979. It was the first time in his solo career that Cockburn recorded with a band. The album's artwork is an adaptation of a painting by Alex Colville entitled Horse and Train. Play jigsaw puzzles for free Home. Bruce Cockburn. The Charity of Night, 1996. Night Train, 06:16.
