Cuts To The Heart & Soul

"The beauty and emotional depth of Lucy Kaplansky's "The Tide," has always cut right to the heart & soul. Its even more
astounding that this was her first CD. Today, her music & voice are still beyond amazing, but I dare anyone to sample Lucy's version of "Goodnight" on this CD, and not drop a tear or two. Same power for the first track, for which the CD is titled.
And having enjoyed the original CD for so many years--getting this re-issue, with new unheard bonus tracks, is like hearing
from a long lost best friend!
If you've never heard Lucy Kaplansky, this CD is a great place to start--and if you have heard her--well then, I'm preaching to the Kaplansky choir!
"The Tide" is remarkable on its own, but also a wonderful first glimpse to the great Kaplansky music to come.
