5 out of 5 stars She doesn't do it like this anymore.......2003-12-10

This is one of the most amazing albums I've ever heard: passionate, fascinating, beautiful, and troubling. It ranks right up there with Joni Mitchell's "Blue" in terms of emotional complexity and depth. Why isn't McKeown recording original material anymore? Though her traditional Celtic recordings are (of course) impeccably done, I can't help but find them boring by comparison. Once when McKeown was signing records after an event, she seemed almost to be steering fans away from purchasing this album. Please! It's the best one! I hope Susan McKeown will eventually tire of exploring traditional song and start taking real artistic/personal risks again.

5 out of 5 stars Catch a rising star!.......1999-03-09

My wife and I caught Susan in concert at the North Texas Irish Festival and what a talent she is. Her range and styles provide the listener with some awesome entertainment. Songs like "My Mother" off the "Mother" album, "Snakes" from this album, and the unrecorded rendition of the 1939 classic of "Blue Moon" as an Irish Jig showcase her talent and help define her as a rising star to watch.

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely beautiful!.......1998-12-02

Susan McKeown is my step-cousin's husband's sister and I have been enjoying "Bones" since before it was available in America. What can I say? I was amazed and moved by the entire CD. My particular favorites are "Albatross" and "Snakes". This is great music to listen to after a hard day or when you simply need to relax. Don't miss it! Note to Stephen: Thank you, thank you, thank you for giving me this music so long ago. I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed it!
