Wonderful CD.......2005-09-13

After seeing Annie perform twice (once at at benefit for the Native American Health Center in Oakland, CA and once outside the NMAI in Washington, DC) I was very interested in getting this CD. She is as wonderful in the studio as she is live! She has a gift for songwriting and a beautiful voice.

A must buy CD!.......2005-06-30

This Ikwe "Lady" is so genuine. When I first heard "Spirit Horses" it was on the movie SKINS. I looked around and thought I'd take a chance to see if it was on Amazon. IT WAS, and am now buying her CD. I listened to all the tracks, and the songs just keep getting better. I love music, but once in a while a song will catch my heart and I will listen to it over and over. The Heron Smiled is worthwhile! Way to go ANNIE! Am anxious to hear more!!!!! Miigwetch "Thank You"

Best of the best.......2005-05-29

Want to hear some real music with lyrical content that has meaning. Listen to this. This is not country music. It sounds like "relevant" music to me. Great folk songs, and rock that harkens back to the deeper stuff written in the sixties. If you are tired of the mindless drivel that takes up 99.9% of the airwaves today listen to this Ojibwa women sing. If you can't stomach the "powers that be" listen to this. No drivel here.

Then after you listen to this get John Trudell's Bone Days cd, more mindfull music in these careless times.

Then try Quiltman's Three Sisters cd.

Then think about where we have been taken in the last 35 or so years. Not a pretty place. We can smile again though.

A Must Have.......2003-12-16

This CD is simply one of the purest, honest and beautiful collections of music I have heard in many years. Spirit Horses w/John Trudell is my favorite, with 500 Years in close second. Annie has a beautiful voice.

"The Heron Smiled" One for the Ages.......2002-06-09

Annie Humphrey is the most important new artist of the 21st century. Her music and her message have more depth and meaning than the first three Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and Joni Mitchell albums combined.
These are not just songs. These are revelations!
The song "500 Years" is a contemporary folk masterpiece of epic proportions. In just eight minutes, this one song describes the entire history of the saddest story in America over the past "500 Years", the near extinction of Native America.
Co-written with John Trudell, Carson Gardener, and others, "The Heron Smile" is a classic album and truly, "One for the Ages"! Thank you Annie for providing us all with something we rarely hear anymore, the truth! -Peace-
