True Country.......2007-06-30

It doesn't get any countrier than Tracy Lawrence. He has a true country voice and his voice gets better with every release of a new CD.
The first single "Find Out Who Your Friends Are" is a great country song about when you are down on your luck your true friends will show up and help you through it. This is also his first number 1 in a long time. The second single is "Til I Was A Daddy Too" another great song about how his father raised him up and he never realized how things are until he was a father himself. Every song on this CD has hit possibilities. I have always been a Tracy Lawrence fan and I always will be. We are going to see him in concert on July 28th in Lafayette, Indiana.

Find Out Who Your Friends Are.......2007-06-27

This is such a great song. I listen to it over and over. We love the whole CD.

Tracy is back!.......2007-05-06

I have to agree with the reviews here - Tracy has not disappointed his fans. The songs are great - the choice of material is great - even the cover is great. I was very happy to hear he was putting out a new album and the wait was worth it. Having Tim and Kenny singing with him is just icing on a truly great cake!!

When two-fifths of Cake defected to form Deathray after the release of their sophomore album, Fashion Nugget, some wondered if Sacramento's answer to Camper Van Beethoven would disappear into the land of one-hit wonders--especially since Cake's lone hit, "The Distance," had been penned by departing guitarist Greg Brown. But true to bandleader John McCrea's deadpan cover of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive," Cake turned around and repeated their success with 1998's Prolonging the Magic and its infectious hit, "Never There." Now comes Comfort Eagle, and, with it, news of drummer Todd Roper's departure (which probably explains the addition of drum programming to McCrea's ever-expanding credits). Like Beck, McCrea's self-sufficiency is only matched by an overriding ironic sensibility. It serves him well on the title track where, above mock Middle Eastern drones, he takes on all poseurs ("Now his hat is on backwards, he can show you his tattoos / He's in the music business, he is calling you 'dude'"). By comparison, "Short Skirt/Long Jacket," a song that dates back to McCrae's coffeehouse years, sounds formulaic (which probably explains its selection as the album's first single). No matter, tracks like "Long Line of Cars" and "Meanwhile, Rick James..." are sufficiently intriguing to make up for it. Factor in the distinctive trumpet embellishments of Vincent DiFiore, the band's other original member, and Comfort Eagle seems guaranteed to ensure that, no matter what happens, Cake will survive. --Bill Forman

Cake is awesome.......2007-07-09

Opera Singer should be required listening for anyone who writes songs just to see how five different rhythms can form a bed for a vocal of a completely different rhythm.

Short Skirt - Great story
Comfort Eagle - Just grabs you in every way
Long Line of Cars - Wow!
World of Two - Holy crap! It is wonderful in every way.

Got me down (3.5).......2007-04-09

I got a little dissapointed when I heard this band, I guess I was looking for another Bloodhound Gang. I love that band way too much, and I odn't think I will never find another Bloodhound gang.

SO yes, YTou have probally heard short skirt/long jacket. This album is just way overrated and some people really seem to like this band way too much. I don't always think the singer does his best. Same as Beck, but at least they have a good sound. The songs are forgettable, get boring fast. The drum machine really hurts it, because drum machines have no soul (it can work, btu rock music? Besides BHG, ti dosen't work very well). Great music for mall shopping (I got the urge to check them out while in Linens' N things), that's it. PLus. his voice is just too one dimensional Let's just say that my expectations were ________.

I think a track by track is necessary, just to say what songs brought it down to only three stars.

1.Opera Singer-this song is really ________, it's annoying, boring, and poppy. the drum machine makes this song really one dimensional.
2.Meanwhile, Rick James...-I liked this song. It's cool, long and interesting.
3.Shadow Stabbing-Great guitar work, catchy and memorable.
4.Short Skirt/Long Jacket-The drums are actuallly pretty good. A lot of people have heard this song.
5.Symphony-this song just stinks.
6.Arco Arena-typical instrumental.
7.Comfort Eagle-this song is good, but the sitar is too cheap soudning. It's overrated, certainy not the bset song they have ever done, bull____
8.Long Line OF Cars-Great bass lines. Pretty Funky, one of the best on the album.
9. Love You Madly-average, but a fun song. Very fun, but it dosen't have much depth, and sounds a little one dimensional sometimes.
10.Pretty Pink Ribbon-See Opera singer
11.World Of Two-A failed attempt at a Fashion Nugget song.

Sorry I tried. It's not working as well. It's an interesting, but the Bloodhound Gang is way better. Their pop culture lyrics are so much smarter (sorry, bizzare don't cut it), and their music, choruses, are so much better. Let's just see the Cake fans boil after reading this. So yeah, Bloodhound Gang own these guys anyday of the week. In fact, these are a piece of _____ compared to them

Fashion Nugget is better but this comes in at a close second

picky wench comment.......2007-03-06

In 'Short Skirt, Long Jacket', Kitty is changing her name to Karen as her MG changes to a white Chrysler LeBaron.
They meet at the bank, when she borrows his pen.
She has "....fingernails that shine like justice...",
..... but no pen!

The dude is in a band....
Would he be awake yet?
Would he have a pen?
Would she even speak to him?

____ Karen with the white coupe? _______

I wore the outfit.
I had a pen.....Always...
I loved my
___ Red ___ topless ___ 2.5L turbocharged Chrysler LeBaron.

If this actually happened "Karen" didn't need a pen, she needed a line.
She should have asked what sign he was.

My sign is "Don't feed the animals".

This 'Cake' Takes the . . .Well, You Know.......2007-01-25

I discovered Cake quite by accident and probably several years after everyone else who really loves the band. But, I adore this album and really can listen to it again and again and be amused anew each time I hear it. If an album can make me smile and dance at my desk at work, it is a keeper and this is certainly one of my favorites. While I really appreciate good music, what really catches my attention is clever lyrics and this album is full of those. Great, fun songs.

I Can't Get Enough Of This Man.......2007-06-27

This CD is great! So glad I purchased it. I listen to it all the time. As well as his other CDs.

Keeping soul alive and well.......2007-06-21

I find it astounding that Anthony Hamilton had music this good under his belt yet still couldn't get a major label record deal. Soulife, the first CD of 'new old' music that was released after Jermaine Dupri's So So Def and big guns Arista picked him up was so good it fooled me into believing it was all new stuff - and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Hamilton can do any wrong in my eyes but this second instalment of music from the vaults is genuinely just as good as, and can stand alongside his 'legitimate' releases with pride. The man is just that good. The investigative journalist in me wonders who's making the money from these releases (and if Hamilton is making any at all) and I already see parallels between his situation and Frank McComb's but I would argue he wins either way. True, Ain't Nobody Worryin' is barely two years old but CDs like "Southern Comfort" will help keep him in people's minds for a while longer, could well bring new fans into his base and will make all of us all the more eager for his next 'proper' release, soon may it come.

Good production by Fanatic, Doug Coleman and Ced Colo but as always, it's all about that voice. There's an honesty, angst and yearning in Hamilton's voice that is unique to him and can only be earned through experience. Mind you, there's nothing gasp-inducing here. None of the songs in this set reach me like "Float" did on Comin' from Where I'm From or like "Change Your World" on "Ain't Nobody Worryin'" did for example, but I'm particularly feeling "They Don't Know", "Please" and "Sailing Away". All in all, it's a solid collection of songs. I thoroughly enjoy listening to it. Here's to another man who's keeping soul alive and well. 4.5 stars.

Now this is "Anthony Hamilton"!.......2007-06-19

As most reviewers have already stated, this is NOT "new" music by
Anthony Hamilton and Thank God for that. Hamilton is one of the most talented artist of today, however, I've always felt he was signed by the wrong label and most of his CD's have consequently gone over "lukewarm" as a result. As I understand it, the songs in this collection were previously written and recorded before Hamilton hit the "big time". He sings his heart out w/this CD and demonstrates what a deeply soulful singer he truly is. One can only hope that someday his current label will nuture this side of Hamilton and get him back to his obvious passion, Old time R&B.

This one's for those who have not discovered Anthony Hamilton, as well as regular fans.......2007-06-06

As you can see most reviews are 4 to 5 stars, and rightly so. I won't get into the track breakdown, for what makes a cd worth it to me is one that you can just press play, sit back, and enjoy.

If you were a previous fan, I think you would agree that Anthony Hamilton has had this quality in the past, and certainly this is true here. I won't get into what which was better than which.

If you aren't a fan already, I would recommend this cd, for some, well for lack of better terms, southern comfort. I can't imagine anyone to be disappointed.

I think we are going to see a lot of grammy's heading toward Anthony Hamilton's direction.

I HARDLY EVER GIVE 4 STARS....BUT THIS IS VERY GOOD!.......2007-05-29

Anthony Hamilton is a truly talented artist. He is not your average r&b artist.
I really 5 songs on this cd.

tracks:1. They don't know
2.Magnolia's room
3. Why - My favorite track on the cd.It makes me think.
6.falling in love again
7.Trouble

I DIDN'T CARE FOR TRACKS 4 AND 5 JUST BECAUSE OF THE CUSSING. BUT OTHERWISE THIS IS A REALLY GOOD CD.

This cd is not like any of his other material. Out of all his CDs,I like this one the best.This cd is definitely grammy,soul train award worthy.
Give this artist the credit he deserves!

Album Description

Songs For The Inner Child is a collection of chants and lullabies, both traditional and contemporary, sung with the gentle voice of a loving mother. The songs are healing and soothing for listeners of all ages, carrying powerful messages of affirmation and comfort. Over 200,000 copies have been sold worldwide.

With Shaina Noll on lead and harmony vocals, New Age keyboard artist Jim Oliver produced and contributed instrumentally to many of the tracks. Rusty Crutcher, best known for his "Sacred Sites" series of albums, plays saxophone on "Deep Peace". Shaina's husband, Richard, contributes harmony vocals and recorder tracks.

Songwriters Cris Williamson, Libby Roderick, Susan McCullen and Bill Douglas are among those whose songs are featured on the album along with Shaina's composition, "Peace Be With You".

Lyrics include:

"How could anyone ever tell you you were anything less than beautiful...how could anyone ever tell you you were less than whole...how could anyone fail to notice that your loving is a miracle...how deeply you're connected to my soul..."

"You can relax now...you are the child of God, and that will never change"

"Peace be with you, oh my dear one...peace be with you, precious child...angels hover all about you, they protect you, night and day...angels over all about you, they will guide you on your way..."

"Deep peace of the running wave to you, deep peace of the flowing air to you, deep peace of the gentle night to you, moon and stars pour their healing light on you..."

Customer Reviews:

How did you know Shaina?.......2007-05-12

I was injured a year ago and have had two surgeries and months of physical therapy. As well as physical healing, I have been working on spiritual enlightenment. This CD spoke to me immediately and it was as though I knew the words before she even spoke them. I use the music as an affirmation of who I am, where I have been, and where I am going. One of her lovely songs simply states " How can anyone ever tell you you were anything less than beautiful?" What a beautiful affirmation of your value and worth as a precious child of our Creator. Awesome!

Song For the Inner Child.......2007-04-02

If your self-image has taken a hit lately or if your life has been full of stress lately, this album of beautiful,soothing uplifting music was meant for you. It will refresh you and validate you.

Comforting, Healing.......2007-03-09

I first heard the first song on this CD in a psychology class. A number of us sat there and wept.

I use this CD for myself and with clients in the healing work I do. I find it comforting in hard times, the things my Inner Child needed to hear when she was young, but didn't.

I am grateful this CD exists.

Wonderfully healing message.......2007-01-10

This beautiful CD is ideal both for children and adults who will benefit from its soothing message of their specialness. I especially recommend it for those who have experienced a difficult or painful childhood and are in need of healing. Let Shaina Noll's lovely voice and the beautiful lyrics of these songs sink into your psyche. She sings a message we all need to hear and embrace.

Affirmations for the soul.......2006-11-12

The words to these songs could be imagined as coming from a precious parent, from a trusted friend who has boundaries, or from ones Higher Power. The mellow music and the affirming words reached my soul.

Excellent.......2007-07-09

Excellent CD. Doreen has a very soothing voice spoken in a relaxed manner. The soft music in the background enhances the relaxed mood without becoming a focus in itself. The script she uses is concise enough to provide adequate guidance yet open-ended enough to make listining to it a very personal experience which can be listened to again and again as if it were the first time.

Try high quality speakers.......2007-07-08

I bought this cd along with several others. After awhile this has become my favorite. It's not the words or imagery, and this might sound wierd.
I tried it out recently on a higher quality system with expensive speakers. It may just be me, but it has the effect of percodan or loritab (pain medication).
Something about her voice, on the high end speakers multiplies the effect of relaxing me, even as I'm sitting up with eyes open. On my $100 stereo it's nothing special although still my favorite.

didn't like so don't listen to it.......2006-11-09

should have been as good as the others i got.

It just plain works!!.......2006-10-07

This CD is a strange mix of things -- from a guided imagery trip to a tale about a boy building a wall. Whatever. The bottom line is that it puts me to sleep almost every time. I can't remember the last time I heard the CD to the end. Maybe only twice out of 60 playings.

I can still have problems staying asleep (insomnia and mild sleep apnea) but that's another issue.

My wife has a bunch of Wendi Freisen CDs which absolutely do not work for me. Where Wendi's voice grates and annoys, Doreen's voice is, "like buttah".

Highly recommended.

Sweet sleep!.......2006-08-25

I bought this for my husband to help with his relaxation and sleep. Not only does he love it, but I do to! I put it in my DVD player at night, set the tv for auto shut off and Doreen knocks me out! I've been sleeping so well myself since listening to her. She has a great voice for relaxation, and I've yet to hear the whole cd! I also gave this to my mom who has problems with sleeping and she dittos what I've said.

Few vocalists equal the expressive subtlety of Beth Orton, whose fourth album is both her most musically spare and artistically complex to date. Not only does the production and backing by Jim O'Rourke (known for his work with Sonic Youth and Wilco) capture Orton's vocal style at its most unstudied and unvarnished, the lack of embellishment focuses all the more attention on her songwriting. From the jazzy phrasing on the deceptively jaunty "Worms" through the haunting "Feral" and the amazing grace of the closing, hymnlike "Pieces of Sky," Orton's songs give voice to the sort of knotty, prickly emotions that are as hard to define as they are deeply felt. Most of the musical dynamic features piano or guitar over an elemental, insistent rhythm section, making the coloring of an occasional string section ("Conceived"), harmonica ("Absinthe"), or accordion ("Safe in Your Arms") all the more striking. As an indication of the emotional range of this musical minimalism, the title cut is soothing enough to please fans of Norah Jones, while "Heartlandstruckstop" is as edgy as Patti Smith. --Don McLeese

Customer Reviews:

I only listen to it unintentionally..........2007-04-30

Comfort of Strangers sits next to all my other Beth Orton albums in my iTunes playlist (Trailer Park, Central Reservation, Daybreaker), and it never gets listened to unless I do a listen-through of Central Reservation and then forget to switch to something else once Comfort of Strangers follows. Despite multiple listens, these songs are just not growing on me in the way that all of Orton's other albums that I own did. Even Daybreaker, which I found originally to not be as captivating as Central Reservation, is well-loved by this point.

A wonderful cd ..................2007-03-04

I've listened to this cd 3 times now, and each time I take away a little bit more. To me, this is an excellent cd, with many exceptional tracks. My favorites are Rectify, Conceive, Comfort of Strangers, Shopping Trolley and Heart of Soul.

These tracks are expressive and compelling, to me. And her voice really works on them. I'll have to go back and give worms another try, since the song doesn't do much for me as of this writing. I really love the vulnerability in her voice, though for some it comes across as whiny. Not for me. I think she's great, and I'm really enjoying her more organic style.

This album will creep up on you.......2007-01-18

I got this album from a friend who told me that it was one of those albums that had really gotten under his skin, and that I had to listen to it a few times to give it a chance. I liked some of the songs right off: worms, place aside, safe in your arms; I was definitely prone to skipping around a lot. As I kept listening, though, I started to see new things in almost all of the songs and the album as a whole really started to get to me. Her lyrics are incredible, phrasing things that I had felt but hadn't been able to articulate, and she has a particular way of emphasizing the important things with subtle vocal changes, like the repeated lines at the end of pieces of sky: "there's so many people who need to know that you're still with them even when they don't know" and her voice rises and almost cracks on the 'you're'. In contrast to the sort of numb feel of the rest of the song, it highlights the desperate attempt to accept that it's over and time to move on. I find myself doing that a lot with this album, analyzing little things...and I recommend it to pretty much anyone who likes that kind of thing, especially someone trying to come to terms with their own complicated relationship issues (which, really, is most people).

After Only a Few Listens.......2007-01-10

This release has the typical melancholy sound that Beth Orton is known for and if you are looking for that quintesential mellow mood, this is your music. I have only listened to the entire CD twice, but my initial opinion is that it doesn't have much diversity of style. The songs sound very much the same and do not venture into the more experimental style of songs found on some of her other releases. That said, I will continue to listen to it because often it takes many more times through before a CD grows on a person. It is a nice alternative to the mainstream pop music which draws the listener in with a catchy beat and simplistic lyrics. This latest release, along with almost all of Beth Orton's music can never be accused of that. Her music forces the listener to focus on the lyrics which are often symbolic and her flat key segway doesn't allow you to drift away. This release continues that tradition. It may not be the CD I would recommend for those not familiar with Beth Orton's music but it carries enough interest for fans of Beth's music that I say it's worth a listen.

Hmmmmmmm.......2006-11-28

I'm sorry Beth but your voice gets on my nerves. Cheer up and stop whining. I have listened to 3 of your albums 3 times and tried to give you the benefit of the doubt. It's 3 strikes now and you are out of my collection and into a bottom drawer.

Just as Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On was about much more than the sex that it celebrated, so does Meshell Ndegeocello's putative love album Comfort Woman have more than seduction on its mind. Lust and romance frame the record's concerns, but as with Gaye's work, they're seen as a liberating force: "I wanna get free with you," sings Ndegeocello near the disc's beginning; she later quotes an anti-pie-in-the-sky verse from Bob Marley's "Get Up Stand Up" to hammer home the theme of salvation on Earth. Similarly, Comfort Woman is more musically ambitious than the bulk of recent neo-soul sets with which it shares an audience. A number of dubwise excursions and rock guitar solos ensure that a debt to the '70s is paid, but this is hardly a slavish Gaye/Curtis Mayfield tribute. Comfort Woman finds Ndegeocello in an inspired frame of mind and at a peak of invention. --Rickey Wright

Argentinean popsters Soda Stereo, recorded live at MTV Studios in Miami, are not exactly acoustic as one might suppose from the title, but do project a light touch--somewhere between contemporary and alternative rock genres. There is little audience participation between the eleven songs that feature some psychedelic electronic swirls, cellos, and violas alongside standard rock guitars, as Soda Stereo move through a somewhat limited repertoire. This is an "interactive" CD, with additional content designed to be played both on regular CD players and computer CD-ROM drives, but it proves difficult to get the audio-only tracks on a Mac, and a lot of the footage and graphics are either inconsequential or irrelevant. --Derek Rath

Mucho mejor que excelente.......2006-06-29

Todavía recuerdo la primera vez que escuche la versión MTV de la Ciudad de La Furia; fue en el Papas and Beer de Ensenada, Baja California. Era un domingo y mi esposa y yo disfrutábamos de una banda local que interpretaba éxitos del Rock en Español. En el momento que el grupo tomo un descanso mi esposa se retiro para ir al tocador, al tiempo de acercar mi cerveza a la boca (una sabrosa y helada Tecate) inicio el acorde de "En la Ciudad de la Furia". Las guitarras me transportaron, el ritmo era tan poderoso y pausado, era increíble, indescriptible como se apodero la rola de mi. Al final de la rola, inmediatamente me dirigí con el DJ para preguntarle en que disco venía esa canción. Esa misma noche ordene el disco en línea. ¡Que titulo mas apropiado tiene el disco! "Confort y Música para Volar" Esa noche en el Papas volé confortablemente con Soda Stereo... Después del Nervio del Volcán de Caifanes, en mi opinión, este es el mejor disco de rock en Español.

A Live Spanish Language Pop, Rock & Jazz Musical Masterpiece !.......2005-08-08

This MTV unplugged album represents musical masterpiece from one of the best Spanish language rock groups of the past twenty years. The Argentinian based rock group Soda Stereo's music is rhythmic, jazzy, hauntingly beautiful, and ultimately different than most of what we hear on the English language pop/rock/jazz stations. This particular live album is one of the better live rock albums I have ever heard. The combination of acoustic and electric guitars along with many other instruments, sounds, and special effects provide an exotic musical landscape of jazz and rock tunes that will haunt your musical imagination forever. I was introduced to this band's music years ago while in Mexico when I entered my Spanish pop/rock music phase. I have listened to so many thousands of songs and groups in my lifetime including all genres from classic rock, progressive rock, pop, new wave, new age, R&B, classical orchestral, renaissance, Irish folk, hard rock, heavy metal, Spanish pop/rock/jazz, rap (yes even rap), hip-hop, club dance, etc. etc. etc. I have heard and listened to it all. You might be familiar with Spanish language rock groups such as Mana. This music is similar but this group is more jazzy, more experimental, and more raw. I had collected at least thirty Spanish language pop/rock albums during the late 1990s and this was one of my favorites. The songs on this album and the performances are absolutely incredible and they transcend language and time the way many great English language rock albums by groups such as Led Zeppelin, The Who, and Pink Floyd have through the years. From the echoing electric jazz guitar of the opening song "En la Ciudad de La Furia", to the Latin pop rhythm and beat of "Entre Canibales", and the progressive and Pink Floyd-ish "Sonoman" and "Planeador" I promise you that this rock album is unlike anything you have ever experienced. Unfortunately after leaving a two decade legacy of unforgettable and timeless Spanish rock based musical work Soda Stereo's members disbanded in 1997. If you are a musical enthusiast who is not afraid to venture out and explore listening to many different kinds of music and you enjoy progressive rock and jazz then this album by Soda Stereo is an absolute must have since it represents some of the most amazing music I have ever heard coming from one of the best and most influential Spanish language rock groups of the 1980s and 1990s.

Brilliant........2005-05-04

Superb stuff! A great selection of Soda Stereo songs, not even remotely unplugged and who would want it to be?? Ciudad de la furia is incredible and its worth buying for this version alone.

WOW!.......2004-12-09

2 months ago I was doing my chores late at night while listening to MTV en Espanol. I was bored and about to turn of the T.V until i heard the Incredible Unplugged version of "Entre Canibales" by soda stereo (a group that was unknown to me at the time)after being completely captivated by the song I then decided to by the album and quite frankly i was blown away by the incredible first seven unplugged songs, Here it the list

1. La ciudad de la furia- Beautiful! I would have paid the full 15 dollars for this song alone Absolutely brilliant! I really dig Andrea Echevarry's voice

2. Un Misil En mi placard- Excellent acoustic song, Incredibly pleasing to the ears.

3. Pasos- I love how Soda Stereo worked this song with a blend of the acoustic guitar and violins.

4. Entre Canibales- Song that started my craze for this wonderful group.

5. Te Para Tres- Lovely song, love the electric guitar near the end.

6. Angel Electrico- Great song I love How Gustavo Cerati ( Lead Singer) shows his passion for the electric guitar in this song, him and Zeta (Bassist) did a good job.

7. Ella uso mi cabeza como un revolver: Great song, I get fired up everytime I hear it!

GREAT UNPLUGGED: DEFINATELY PARA VOLAR!!!

Soda Stereo Semi - acustico.......2004-12-09

Uno de los ultimos discos de Soda Stereo. Grabado en Miami para MTV, Gustavo Cerati, Charli Alberti y Zeta Bosio graban fantasticas versiones de viejas canciones como "Un misil en mi placard" y "Entre Canibales", al lado de nuevas canciones de estudio como "Planeador".

En cada disco Soda Stereo va cambiando su estilo, cada vez mas a la vanguardia, y sonando cada vez mas electronico. Es interesante la participacion de Andrea Echeverri (Aterciopelados) en "La Ciudad de la Furia", donde escuchamos una excelente voz y un maravilloso arreglo para este clasico de la banda.

La parte "plugged" empieza con "Ella uso mi cabeza como un revolver" y "Angel electrico" donde Cerati deja escuchar su destreza en la guitarra.

Canciones recomendadas: "Angel Electrico", "La Ciudad de la Furia" y "Entre Canibales".

The international appeal of the blues comes home with a fiery flourish on the breakout album by youthful Yugoslavian singer/guitarist Ana Popovic. Her 2001 debut disc Hush! effectively displayed her potential and Comfort to the Soul demonstrates she's well on the road to realizing much of it. Popovic, who relocated to the Netherlands in 1999, is much more than just the best Belgrade-born blues act. Although it's her rockish energy, expressed on tunes like the opening Melissa Etheridge-style "Don't Bear Down on Me," that will garner the majority of the attention, the most impressive aspect of her music is its diversity. She exhibits some Elmore James-inspired slide guitar on a couple of tracks (most notably on an innovative up-tempo take on Howlin' Wolf's "Sittin' On Top of the World"), shoots off more than a few hard-edged rocking blues solos elsewhere, and utilizes her affinity for jazz guitar in several creative contexts. Popovic's music, like her blues persona, is obviously still a work in progress but her second album provides as much pleasure in the present as it does promise for the future.--Michael Point

Nothing New.......2006-03-30

Well i saw anna on a video from a woonsocket, RI (USA) club and was totally impressed with her guitar virtuosity. very much reminded me of hendrix and rory gallagher amoung others. this cd however was a disapointment. it's very much packaged material and the sound production is awful. i'm a drummer and so i'm always keen to the drum sound. this cd pretty much loses the edge and excitement that drumming typcially adds to rock and blues. the songs are enjoyable in general and she can emulate some great artists with her voice also (joan armatrading for one). i would like to get a live recording hoping that there's more soulfulness and spark in the music.

If I liked Ana Popovic once I'll like her twic.......2005-10-17

Here is some more of Miss Popovic, doing some wonderful things with her voice and her guitar. Her band is none too shabby, either.

Hmmmm.......2004-02-14

In a few spots, she may be beginning to find "her sound" or "her voice," but in my opinion, most of it sounds like she's in sort of a Tinsley Ellis meets Deborah Coleman mode. A bit over-produced and "busy" overall.

Ana, give us your version of some stripped-down Delta or Chicago blues in your next effort. At least a coupla tunes each... show us you can hold back and let the music rip our hearts out.

Please lose the chorus pedal.

Ana Takes US by Storm.......2003-11-22

I had the chance to meet Ana at the WC Handy awards in Memphis this year. She played at a couple of jams and took everybody by suprise. She is a well versed guitar player/song writer. Her new CD, Comfort to the Soul has something for everyone. Since her first CD Hush, she has grown even more as an artist in her own right. I would recommend this CD highly! Don't be left out on what's happening in the music world. Ana is sure to become a household name. If you get a chance to see her live I would make every effort to do so! She is even better live than on her albums! Love and Blues...........

here to steal the show.......2003-11-17

What a great cd!.Bought Ana's two cds out of curiosity after reading an interveiw with her and haven't been able to stop playing them since.Comfort to the soul is more bluesy funk with some amazing lead and slide guitar work and good songs,both Ana's and the covers chosen.So do yourself a favour and buy this cd from this incredible artist, you will not be disappointed if you injoy good music, infact treat yourself and buy both her cds.
