5 out of 5 stars beautiful memories.......2005-12-07

This album came out on vinyl 20 to 30 years ago, I don't remember how I first heard it, but I had to have it,I found it on cd just recently, but let me tell you this is a hard cd to find, I got it for my daughter because she had remembered it when she was very young as I danced with her to it.She had been looking for it for a number of years.It still sounds just as beautiful as it always did.An excellant buy, get yours if you can find it!

5 out of 5 stars Magic.......2004-02-20

Even Now is one of my all time favorite tracks. Touching, captivating the track by itself is worth the price but there are more wonderful suprises. A must have for Nana fans everywhere! I highly recomend.

4 out of 5 stars Even Now.......2002-04-25

I heard Nana's Even Now over an easy listening radio fm station some years ago and was immediately enchanted with her voice.. I called the local station and got the title and the name of the artist from the DJ playing the music at the time.. Since then - I had forgotten the name of the tune until I ran into it on this album.. I have purchased the album based upon the strength on this one tune alone.. I'm sure I shall find other surprising tunes also on this CD...

5 out of 5 stars A Very Beautiful Album.......2000-01-12

I was in New York in June 1980 when I got to hear this album from a friend's LP record collections, my first - and accidental! - introduction to this sweet-voiced singer from Greece. I was so captivated by the songs that I practically stole the LP record from its owner!

Nana Mouskouri's beautiful and soaring soprano is pure, soothing and crystal clear. It jumps right out of the speakers and makes listening an intensely personal and intimate experience.

Her handling of 'Sweet Surrender' is as good and infectious, if not better, than the original version of the late John Denver. Her ability to interprete fast-paced numbers like 'Nickels And Dimes', 'Love Is A Rose', and 'There's A Time' (a re-make of Elvis Presley's 'Wooden Heart') is equalled only by her tasteful ability to handle tender ballads like 'Autumn Leaves' and 'All Over The World'. She is adept in projecting vastly different moods and it shines through in this album.

After listening to many of her subsequent albums, I come to the conclusion that Nana Mouskouri is very much at home doing folk and country type pieces like Bob Dylan's 'Tomorrow Is A Long Time', the folk standard 'Roses Love Sunshine', and 'Down By The Greenwood Side', a sweet and simple tune, though monotonous by its length and repetitiveness. But my favorite cut has to be 'Even Now', a song about a woman recalling and reliving her happy past with her lover and wishing for him to come back into her life.

After all these years, Roses Love Sunshine is still one of my favorite albums ever. One must not miss this one.

5 out of 5 stars Haunting and Lovely.......1999-10-02

Nana Mouskouri has the most soothing and enchanting sound. I never cease to be bored with her melodic renditions. This is, by far, my favorite. I pull this cd out every autumn, and on a crisp, cool day, I play it over and over. It just adds brilliance to the "Autumn Leaves" outside my window.
