CD Reviews

Sage's best release yet

Rainbird | 01/03/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Rachael Sage's seventh release is her best yet. From the playful opening track, "Alright, OK" to the plaintive closing ballad "Calypso", The Blistering Sun is a collection of consistently moving tunes. In a just world "Featherwoman" would be an international hit, and "Violet or Blue" would be all over the R&B airwaves. But this album is worthwhile for "93 Maidens" alone: a thought-provoking retelling of the story of a young girl who chose suicide rather than submit to her Nazi captors. Highly recommended if you like the more lucid works of Tori Amos, if you pine for Laura Nyro's glory days, or if you just plain like good, intelligent piano-based music with offbeat instrumentation."

Brilliant and Beautiful!!!

CaptainGirlie | NYC | 01/04/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Blistering Sun is a dazzling piece of art and musicianship. Each song is a finely woven story - intricate, beautiful, and detailed. If you like Tori Amos, Marc Cohen, Ani DiFranco, Carole King, or any of the real deal story teller songwriters - you will go crazy for Rachael's music. Each Rachael Sage release is a gift - a novel of entrenched beauty. The song "93 Maidens" on "The Blistering Sun" is a classic - a holocaust tale so heart wrenching it will haunt your dreams (or your ipod) for months... a mix tape must."

A great CD

"I discovered Rachel Sage just recently and already purchased most of her CDs. This is my favorite so far. Rachel has a beautiful voice and the songs lyrics are wonderful. I absolutely love this CD."
