Flaming Red is Patty Griffin's second album. It was released on June 23, 1998, and reached number 12 on the Top Heatseekers chart. According to Billboard, the album has sold 122,000 copies in the U.S. up to May 2004.
Critical reception
Of the album, Griffin herself commented, "I always felt like I was a rock singer. It was all I listened to. I felt like, 'Don't call me a folksinger.'" Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic writes, "Flaming Red is evidence that Griffin is one [of] the more talented and ambitious singer/songwriters to emerge in the late '90s."
NPR named the album to their list of 150 Greatest Albums Made By Women calling it "electrifying" and a "testament to the fire simmering under all of [Griffin's] work preceding this album, and what came after it."
