"It will remain a frustrating mystery in my life why this album did not and still does not receive the recognition it deserves. Every single song is crafted to perfection, her voice is truly unique, the music is deep and sonic and the lyrics are absolutely amazing! I still can't believe that Edie wrote "Good Times", I would swear it was an old 60's song by some soul legend. This album is in my top 10 of all time and I don't care if no one else understands! But I wish they would. Do yourself a favor and buy this masterpiece. This is some of the best, most honest music I have ever heard."

Great guitar playing.

"While this is a great CD, in an endeavour to add something different to the other reviews, I'll focus on the outstanding musicianship in this Album.While I would give the cd 4 stars based on the songs alone, I have to give it 5 stars due to the quality of the musicianship and song production which really makes them. In my opinion, this makes a couple of the songs I like a bit less still very listenable. In particular, the guitar lines throughout the album are a highlight. My favourite would be "Tomorrow Comes" which is a brilliant example of simple but well placed guitar licks with no over-playing. The song itself has a real "eighties sound" and makes the album worth buying just for this song. Also, if you own an old copy of Windows 95, you'll remember the song "Good Times" which is another fine example of a great, simple but well produced pop song with the "Eddie" sound. The album grows on you the more times you listen to it. Highly recommended listening for any aspiring pop musician and anyone else who likes great quality easy listening pop songs which can be played over again without becoming boring. Well worth an addition to any collection."

"I picked this title up in the under $7.00 bin of a music store on the way to a blue's festival. What a prize! We listened to it over and over on the drive and I still regularly pop it in the C.D. player at home. I was familiar with the two hits from Edie Brickell's 1st album but hadn't heard anything else from her on the radio. She's got a really unique voice and her songs have great rhythms."
