Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars You must buy this album ....................2004-04-23

for the track Red Balloon. I love the album, a marriage of bluegrass and jazz, strong songwriting, haunting melodies and of course, Red Balloon. Everytime I hear this piece, I feel like hopping in the car or plane for a long holidy. Some songs do this to you, for me Red Balloon is it!

5 out of 5 stars A Heavenly Marriage of The Banjo and Contemporary Jazz.......2003-08-31

For those of you who are looking for the perfect combination of contemporary jazz and the banjo, then you need to get this CD. Alison Brown and her band give a wonderful performance that is refreshingly upbeat. My only complaint of the CD is that its playing time could've been longer (than 36 minutes, 37 seconds). Still, this is a great CD to have.

5 out of 5 stars WOW! Banjo/Piano/Jazz .... Who Would'a Thought?.......2002-09-02

After hearing a selection from this album on the radio.....I just had to get this album to see what all this was banjo music was all about.... Well, I'll tell you, that this babe can pick!!! Alison Brown and her group blend a sometimes jazzy feeling with piano and other instruments that is surprisingly, refreshing and different...........I loved it!!!!!........all the musicians on this CD really have it together.......Until now, I never heard of her.......Well if she hasn't been discovered by the masses it seems that it will only be a matter of time before someone brings her to the spotlight for everyone to enjoy......Bravo Alison...... I think you may have created a new genre of music...

5 out of 5 stars A New Alison Brown Quartet Fan.......1999-08-26

Being a fan of pop music, I was only introduced to Alison Brown's music just recently by a friend of mine. I enjoyed the CD very much, finding it very relaxing, and musically excellent. My favorite would probably be "The Day Sweeps Back". Great work, Alison!!
