Wonderfully listenable-Excellent.

"First off, this is NOT Robin Williams of 'Mork' fame, this is a different talented Robin, with his lovely wife Linda. This gifted couple are so vocally evocative that when you listen to them you feel as if you are inside their songs and the milieu they are creating. Particularly pay attention to the telling, nearly heartbreaking geographical contradiction in "Across The Blue Mountains", my personal favorite on this disc. This CD is SO worth your money and time! We can also enjoy them on Garrison Keillors' PHC radio show as half of 'The Hopeful Gospel Quartet'. I have no commercial affiliation with anyone mentiond, I'm just a grateful fan."

Integrity!

"All Broken Hearts was my first introduction to Robin & Linda, and I originally owned this on vinyl. Robin & Linda have incredible respect for the music they play, and every song they put out is steeped in the traditions that have gone before them. The word that keeps coming to mind is integrity, and there is no better example than these fine folks. This album is perhaps a little more country tinged than their more recent work. All the songs are beautiful, and I agree that Across the Blue Mountains is probably the most evocative and haunting. All in all a gorgeous album that has stood the test of time."

One of my best-loved CD's

"I've been listening to Robin and Linda Williams since about 1973, so one might say I've heard a lot of their music, and this collection is excellent. I listen to it over and over in the car. It's great for listening or singing along. The tunes really pull a person in...of course, many of their tunes DO...

I recommend this CD for anyone who enjoys country, bluegrass, or old-time music. It's so well done."
