Great Unconventional Holiday Music.......2007-01-02
Wow! Loreena McKennitt has such a beautiful voice paired with the harp that makes this a must have holiday album for those fully stocked on run of the mill Christmas music. Includes some traditional British carols not so familiar in the US and some winter-themed songs she wrote that are quite mesmerizing.
You do have to get past the fact that these aren't songs that Americans necessarily associate with Christmas to actually enjoy it as a "Christmas album," but it's worth buying if not just to pull out for a few weeks every year and enjoy the sheer beauty of the music.
Lovely music for the season, recorded in resonant halls.......2006-10-01
More gentle, clear-voiced beauty from vocalist/arranger/multi-instrumentalist Loreena McKennitt--this time a collection of rarely heard seasonal songs from England, Ireland and Scotland with a few original compositions thrown in for good measure. As with her prior album, "Elemental," McKennitt's arrangements here are filled with a spare but striking magic--in this case, reminiscent of the quiet stillness of a snowfall as it blankets the world in soft, crystaline white. The music was recorded in Annaghmakerrig, Ireland; Glenstal Abbey, England; and the Church of our Lady, Guelph (in Canada). In the album's liner notes, McKennitt writes, "as a child, my most vivid impression of music for the winter season came from songs and carols recorded in churches or great halls, rich with their own unique ambience and tradtition. In that spirit I have ventured into several similar locations that I have come to cherish in my travels ... The arrangements are sparse but somehow I felt that reflected the dynamics of the fall and winter seasons, and that their can be much beauty in such simplicity." I can't say it any better. Some of the songs are performed by McKennitt alone as harp-embellished vocals. Others feature understated harmonies and accompaniments by guest artists Shannon Purvis-Smith (viols) and Cedric Smith (vocals). If track #5, "Snow," sounds familiar, that might be because it also appears on one of McKennitt's later albums, "A Winter Garden." Loreena McKennitt's next album is "Parallel Dreams." Compare her work with that of rich-voiced singer Susan McKeown in "Lowlands" and the haunting a cappella ballads of Niamh Parsons in such albums as "Loosely Connected."

Uhhhhh.......2003-09-23
I'm only writing because it said "be the first to review this album." and I thought. wow either people are really hardcore and don't want the "maximum greatest hits import" or they aren't hardcore and haven't even heard of them. either way, great band, music is good so 3 stars, but loses points for being one of countless "maximum EPs" or whatever from other countries (why not just release all the albums there). AYo i'm the first person to review this.

Why have you not bought this already?.......2001-05-21
This is by far one of the best albums I have heard in the past few years. So lush, and beautiful. It is the soundtrack of love, and I don't mean like "gettin' it on", I mean that sickly heart love. So wonderfully emotional. To give you an idea, I bought it on vinyl some years back, and recently added it to my CD collection as well. Do the world a favor, and buy it now.
Ambient heaven.......2001-02-04
I was entering a clothing store on Meiji-Dori in Japan last week, when I heard the tunes from the CD for the first time. Recently I discovered ambient, so Emmidiately my attention was drawn towards the music coming from the loudspeakers, rather that the clothes hanging on the the hangers in the shop. I asked a girl, working there waht music they were playing, and she showed me the cover. I wrote the title down and searched for the CD with no luck..... In a few days time I will recieve it, and I can't wait! Linse
The best and most interesting album of the last decade.......2000-07-10
Genres are multiplying thick and fast at the moment, and have been for a while. But very few break much if any new ground; most hit a dead end (speed garage), or just carry on doing the same thing without any innovation beyond the original concept (drum'n'bass). So it is a treat to discover an album which is both original and nigh-on perfect in Mercy Street: not really like very much else, but if you must, a fusion of classical, prog rock, chillout and techno (which should say very little to you, in truth, and does A Reminiscent Drive no justice). Themes echo all the way through the record, all recalling each other but each one different and memorable; each track has its own progression and form: some, like 'There's Always Somebody...' reaching a climactic single bar after a couple of minutes; others, like 'Relief', always moving but never peaking. None of them sound formulaic, most of them inspire a kind of awe (how does he make such odd noises sound so good? Could anyone else?), all but two or three songs are masterpieces, and the album as a whole is as coherent a piece of work as anything I have heard. Even the album sleeve is gorgeous. Matched only by A Reminiscent Drive's EP, 'Given', this is simply the best thing I've ever come across. As a friend of mine said, on hearing it for the first time, children should be made to listen to this. Buy it now.
(although be warned: lyrics are sparse, singalonga melodies sparser and verse-chorus-verse-chorus rock or buildy-uppy beats altogether absent)
a classic.......2000-05-08
Think beach in Australia at 6 o'clock in the morning, you walk , the sun is coming and the music is here in your ears...this is the one man! it is sublime. This CD is for Trip hop lover, full of emotions and romance.

A day on "Ocean Drive".......2001-04-25
From time to time, I listen to JazzFM and this time they played cuts from their new CD "Ocean Drive." I immediately felt myself driving along the California coast through Pebble Beach. I felt the wind blowing through my hair and the sun on my skin. That's what a good jazz CD can do; take you to another place. This is a compilation disc that includes all the best songs from CDs that may only have one good hit. How many times have you brought a CD only to be disappointed by it's content. You won't have to worry with this one. This is a great CD and any one who loves smooth jazz will love this CD. Give it a test drive. Enjoy!

Very Chilled Out Country Rock.......2003-04-15
I just heard about these guys and I listened to them and they are a very solid band. Some of the tunes are a little to girly for me but all in all I think I like them. The fact that they are British is pretty humourous, and very commendable seeing how they can pull this very American type of music off. Its a little moody but the singers got a great voice and he just pulls off every song very nicely. Definately check it out, its definately a relief from most of the (...)! that comes out these days.

Quite Possibly The Greateast Incubus Single & Ep out.......2002-09-29
I own Make yourself and When Incubus Attacks I think this Ep is really great because it features alot of songs that is hard to come by if you couldnt buy the When Incubus Attacks Ep then this Cd is for you. It features 2 tracks from when incubus attacks but it also features a track never heard yet and that is Drive (OST version) if you ever heard it then you will know it is 10 TIMES BETTER then the original.But it is different then the original. a live version of Favorite Things and Pardon Me isnt so bad and a completely live OST version of Clean well that is one of the best tracks ever by incubus and also included is the regualer version which I think is the downfall. B-cides that it is one of the best Singles b-cides the Are You In single.I would recommend this single highly if you cant find When Incubus Attacks.Other then that u my question buyin a cd wit 2 tracks are the same from a cd u already have. But it is worth it.
a amazing peace of music.......2001-07-19
i love incubus and this is my favorite song from them. I dont have the CD but I do hope to be getting but this is just such a amzing peace or music. I love it.
