Time Flies

When Rich Prezioso {cq} and Jacquie {cq} Manning named their folk duo Small Potatoes, the Illinois singer-guitarists no doubt meant to be ironic. Nonetheless, the name proves an all too accurate description of the pair's debut CD, "Time Flies," which presents their modest voices and competent picking on moderately amusing tunes that reflect a mildly adventurous eclecticism. Small potatoes indeed. There's plenty of singer-songwriter folk, ranging from Prezioso's pedestrian observations on aging and mortality (the title tune and "I Will Pass This Way Again"), to superb songs by Ewan MacColl and Michael Smith. Prezioso and Manning turn in respectable efforts on all these genres, but excel at none of them. --Geoffrey Himes
