Free Music Notes for TidingsFree Music Review: "Music for the season and all time" Hit: 5 StarsTidings grows in popularity each year. As noted, the album contains traditional carols and songs of the season, alongside not-so-traditional songs from the secular, popular music, canon. The music, passionately performed by a singer and pianist of rare beauty, is simple and powerful. This collection, called "the Yule-tide find of the year" by a Canadian reviewer, has proved to be popular year-round - as well as during Christmas season. It's recorded most naturally, live-off-the-floor, on Winter's eve in Canada.
Free Music Review: Deeply moved. Hit: 5 StarsReceived this as a gift over the holidays, and wow.... just, wow. Allison's singing is remarkable in a way that is difficult to put to words. There's an essence to her singing, a vitality that you can appreciate only in the experience. It hit me while sitting in a candle-lit living room on a cold night sipping tea with my lover, and finding that we both were suddenly moved nearly to tears by this great CD. (Yes, I'm referring here to the hauntingly good rendition of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah").
The song selection is great (doesn't hurt that Allison's included "In My Life" -- one of my favorite Beatles songs), and this has certainly made it into my stack of favorites. Buy it. You won't be disappointed.
Free Music Review: So beautiful... Hit: 5 StarsOne of the most beautiful Christmas albums I have ever heard. You have to hear her sing Angel. Her music will take your breath away. If you like Sarah McLachlan, you'll like this.
Free Music Review: Hidden little masterpiece Hit: 5 StarsThe versions of traditional songs are very good. I think she has a very good voice. This is a nice simple clean album. It is built on talent and passion. Sometimes it reminds me a little of Cher on the more upbeat songs and a bit like Norah Jones on the softer pieces. This is a hidden little masterpiece.
Free Music Review: Allison Crowe - Watch Her Rise To The Top Hit: 5 StarsAllison Crowe is on her way. I downloaded some of her music here on Amazon, visited her website and wondered where she had been hiding. Allison's music is soulful and full of passion. If you like Norah Jones, you will love Allison. I hear Allison is working on a new CD. I am betting it will be dynamite! WATCH FOR IT!
