5 out of 5 stars File Next To "Babes In The Wood".......2003-11-18

I found Mary Black back in the 90's through her very popular album "Babes In The Wood". Since then I have purchased several of her other albums but never found one that quite captured the incredible magic of "Babes"...until now. I listened to this album chasing the sunset westward on a cool fall evening and fell in love with this woman's singing all over again. The song "The Loving Time" really got to me. I need to review her discography further to find if there are more albums that strike in the same range.

5 out of 5 stars Mary Black's Best Songs.......2001-11-26

I got this CD by chance at my local thrift store but I'm writing to tell you that it is worth every penny Amazon is asking for it. Mary Black has a beautiful voice that enchants and keeps you coming back for more. I actually got tears in my eyes listening her sing "Ellis Island", a song about an immigrant leaving for Amercia and saying goodbye. At the same time, your toe will tap along to songs like "Carolina Rua" and "Soul Sister". Emmylou Harris sings a duet with Mary in the well known "A Woman's Heart". And "Bright Blue Rose" is spiritually uplifting. My very favorite song on this album is "No Frontiers" where Black sings with such feeling; her voice just soars. I highly recommend this album as it has most of Mary Black's best songs up to the date it was released (1995).

5 out of 5 stars A1 Collection.......1999-03-27

Mary Black has a beautiful voice and some magnificent songs, but she suffers from albums that have too much filler. This collection solves that problem.
