Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Olson and Taylor are Unbelievable! Awsome! .......2005-01-15

One of the finest small-label releases of all time, "The Ring Of Truth", featuring Mick Taylor (Rolling Stones/Bluesbreakers)on guitar and Barry Goldberg (Electric Flag)absolutely cooks from first note to last.
Especially delicious are the magnificent "Never Fade Away", "Sweeter", the title track. The disc closes with a wonderful version of the Stones classic "Winter". Taylor claims a co-credit on the latter, though Mick & Keith disagree, and he's never recieved royalties. John Sebastian (Lovin' Spoonful) guests on Bob Dylan's "Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window).
Carla is an amazing vocalist and composer, and Taylor's solos have never been, well, sweeter!
Buy it (also avaliable on E music.com as a download) and play "Never Fade Away" about 10 straight times!

5 out of 5 stars Welcome Back, Carla!.......2003-01-16

This is a terrific album! It's one of those rare recordings that play again as soon as it's over. If you're familiar with Olson's fine work with the Textones and Mick Taylor's Rolling Stones/post-Rolling Stones work, you'll find the combination here irresistable.

4 out of 5 stars Rocking Shocking Carla.......2002-12-12

Carla Olson's "Ring of Truth" is an excellent return to form, the first CD since her "Reap the Whirlwind." She's joined by former Electric Flag member Barry Goldberg on keyboards & Rolling Stone Mick Taylor. The CD has been disparaged because of the extended jams on "Great Black Hole" and "Winter," but it's kind of nice to hear the band getting down, taking their time to cook with these tunes.
