5 out of 5 stars a Zen Tone review.......2003-07-05

Jenny Toomey has to be one of the most under-rated artists of the millennium. Once again, a CD your can let run twice through and there's not one bad cut. The only way one might describe her voice is to declare it sultry and full of wistfulness.
A mature intelligent composer, this is a must have for any aspiring songwriter. Her placement and choice of Tone puts her in a category all her own.( let us not forget that the choice of producers and players can make all the difference as well. )
This album is also crucial in pointing out that no matter how much effort, or how much work, you put into an album it still must compete with an industry that has little sense of taste, or common sense, as to what is QUALITY MUSIC. This album deserves to compete with what you here on the radio. There is no contest.
Highlights include a killer version of Curtis Mayfield's ' Fool for You', ' The Smell of Him', and 'Clear Cut', a song which contains arrangement and tone reminiscent of Throwing Muses 'House Tornado', but with an edge all of Toomey's own.
Buy this album, you will not be disappointed. Like 'Tempting', it is a jewel for any serious music collector.

5 out of 5 stars Can't stop listening!.......2001-12-21

These cd's haven't left my cd changer since I bought them. I've been a huge Jenny Toomey fan since my east coast/college days and in my opinion this solo effort was well worth the wait. Great lyrics (any song that references a Patsy Cline song can't be bad :) ), great music, great production. The songs range from slow and mellow to downright toe tappin', finger snappin'. All the best parts of Tsunami, Grenadine, Liquorice, all rolled into one and then with a kick. If you've been fan of her previous projects you won't be disappointed, if you've never heard her music before I'm sure you'll become a fan.
