Pleasantly Surprised

"I originally bought this CD just to get one song. I heard Miss Collins' version of "The Rose" on the radio and I thought it was awesome (Yes, I think it's even better than the famous version by Bette). Though never really being a fan of Collins, I thought this song alone was worthy to get this CD. I thought that I wouldn't be impressed with the other songs. I was wrong.
Some of the songs were recorded live, but you really wouldn't know it. The sound quality and the musicianship is first-class. This is one of those albums that I find very uplifting. It makes me feel good to be alive.
"Trust Your Heart" is also a "must have" and is an absolute gorgeous masterpiece and Collins' voice is just tremendous.
If you're just a little bit of a fan of Judy Collins like I was, this disc might make you a BIG fan."

"Not one of her best; over-orchestrated (especially the Jungle Jam bridge befor the last verse in "Pretty Polly"); songs too similar; too few songs for the money. (Sorry, Judy--I've loved just about everything you've ever done!)"
