5 out of 5 stars Sincerest Soulful Singing From A Most Sincere of Artists.......2004-08-26

Six months late.

That's how far behind the curve I was; from when Goodnight Venus was released last October, to the happenstance opportunity that allowed me to see Libby perform live this March.

Completely unaware of what the artist had to offer - I walked in and walked away from seeing Libby with a new appreciation of what can be done with music: the voice, the timidity of the soul, the lyrical imagery, the pure channeling of emotion, the hopscotch of melody and harmony, the interwining of psyches, and even the soft whispers of singing that speak at high volumes to one's soul.

This describes my introduction to Libby, live in concert. Goodnight Venus came home with me that night and didn't come out of the player for over a month. Her emotive delivery and sincere approach to songwriting has useful insight for every listener and is delivered on disc, and live, with conscious, sincere intent.

Goodnight Venus swoops from upbeat tempos to breathtakingly feathery ballads. Naturally, from the way the music affected me, I'm going to write a positive review...and since this random revalation of finding the musical magic that is Libby, I was able to see her perform four times, in four states, within four months.

I am lucky enough to have turned on a whole town to her music, and it's for certain you'll enjoy.

But at least you won't be six months late...

5 out of 5 stars An Exceptional CD!.......2004-06-07

They are rare indeed, CD's of perfection. I guess its the Virgo in me always looking for it and finding it seldom. This is one of those perfect, rare, gems that is a must for any collection. Start to finish Libby captures your heart and ear with her beautiful voice, lyrics, and melodies. I highly reccomend this superbly produced CD and hope to hear more from this Angel of perfection .........

5 out of 5 stars not just a live performance anymore.......2004-06-04

When I first saw Libby, I was pretty blown away. She has an amazingly real energy about her. So light hearted and fun but capturing the big picture. I bought her 1st albumn at the show and love it. Goodnight Venus is more than just Libby's voice and passion. Now she has a much fuller sound. It's got some complexity and is sweeter than ever. Buy the cd and definitely see her show.

5 out of 5 stars Goodnight Venus is a rich and beautiful record.......2004-06-03

I am a new Libby Kirkpatrick fan. Goodnight Venus was my first introduction. The lush, introspective, and passionate sound engaged me immediately. Libby's ingenius guitar playing and chord voicings are particularly moving. Not to mention the soulful singing and writing. I highly recommend this album to any listener.

5 out of 5 stars A fluid, dark, utterly beautiful record.......2004-02-19

"A fluid, dark, utterly beautiful record. Kirkpatrick's breathtaking, agile voice and fearless delivery take this already solid set of songs and lift them into the stratosphere.Conjuring heartbreaking voices from Rickie Lee Jones to PJ Harvey and Cat Power, she keens, howls, croons and chirps her way through smart contemporary pop, brooding folk and luscious, pulsating laments. The sonic textures of Goodnight Venus are as deep and
