My First Melissa CD............2005-01-07

This was the first Melissa Ferrick CD I bought....several years back. I loved the second CD, and didn't know what I was missing on the first one. Someone else commented about how "Drive" makes them sweat. I say, if you can make it though the song with out totally giving in, then there is something wrong with you. This CD set is an accurate representation of her live show, with all the emotion and intensity. Nothing could beat seeing her in concert, but this is the next best thing. "The Stranger" enchanted me..and the rest is history! This is one of my favorite albums. I don't go too far without it.

Sweeeetness!!!.......2004-05-10

I have been a fan for a few years now, after I tripped across a burned cd of her music. I have since bought all but one of her cds, but this remains my favorite (although I'm sure the other new live one is great). If you haven't seen Melissa Ferrick live you MUST. I saw her at the University of Washington for my first time last year and have anxiously awaited seeing her again, which I will tonight. She has the intensity and talent of a true rockstar, in her own sense. Anyway, buy the album and you WILL NOT be disappointed.

Album - 5 stars, packaging 4 stars.......2003-05-06

I was disappointed when I first opened it -- 25 bucks for a cardboard flip case double-cd? That's the worst part of it, though.

THE REST ROCKS. The guitar is powerful and she's true to the fantastic songs she is known for while changing them just enough for the nice "you're-there-live" concert-feel of the set.

And regardless, "Drive" will still make you sweat, ahem.

Accoustic Guitar does not Equal DiFranco.......2001-12-08

I love Ani. And I love Melissa. But they're completely different. To say that Melissa is bad because she's just doing what Ani did years ago is the same as saying that Ani's bad because she's just doing what Joni did years ago, down to the tuning.

This CD represents a heartfelt concert, and Melissa has her own very distinct sound. Having an accoustic guitar does not make a person into Ani DiFranco. So they play the same instrument. Whoopdi-freakin-do. This CD is why Melissa is so great, sputtering out song after song, putting it ALL INTO EVERY SINGLE SONG. Not one song here is less than the best she could have played it.

Worth every penny.
