Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars amazing!.......2003-03-04

this is a great record, I would also compare her to Joni Mitchell. The lyrics, I think, make the album by themselves. Add to that amazing songwriting ability and a great voice, as well as good instrumental ability. This record is so great!

5 out of 5 stars Captivating voice, inciteful songwriting, great music.......2001-02-28

Betina Hershey's debut CD illustrates what wonderful talent she has, not only as a vocalist but also as a songwriter and lyricist. Her music and lyrics are so many things - beautiful, from the heart, honest, personal, inciteful, soulful, and just plain wonderful!

Betina has an incredible style and distinctive sound of her own, however it is also reminiscent of some of the familiar great female folk, jazz, and blues artists (for example, some comparisons can be made to Joni Mitchell and numerous others - but she certainly has a beautiful and unique sound all on her own). The music on the album is quite diverse - acoustic, folk/pop, jazz, funk, soul, and blues are all covered - and Betina's phrasing and poetry is well developed and mature. The recording, arranging, and the musicians (including additional guitarists and horn players) are exceptional as well.

Betina Hershey is a very promising young talent - and this is just the beginning. If you like well-written, beautifully-executed music, with intelligent lyrics and a modern folk/jazz/pop bent, then you will love this CD!

5 out of 5 stars Mesmerizing Beauty.......2001-02-23

Betina Hershey has the sound of a siren. Her angelic voice and deep heartfelt lyrics can charm the coldest of souls. This album runs through an eclectic mix of styles maintaining a common thread of love and wisdom. She truly is a Joni Mitchel for the next generation. With a confidence and strength behind her sound this album has something to appeal to anyone.
