CD ReviewsMaine Attraction Mark Bryant | Portland, ME | 08/19/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "If you're not from Maine, you may not be as exuberant over this album as a true Mainiac. However, Schooner Fare's music crosses all borders in the folk music realm. An old girlfriend who lives in Montana and has never seen the ocean rates this one of her all-time favorites. That's because Schooner Fare creates the feel of being in Maine and out on the ocean so amazingly through the use of Steve Romanoff's lyrics and music (plus a little help from brother Chuck and band mate Tom Rowe). If you can't feel the salt water sting your face and feel the swell of the ocean during "Day of the Clipper", I don't know what other art form will. If you can't feel the yearning for home and waiting to see the lights of your city after a long trip during "Portland Town" ... again, you must have not an ounce of sensitivity in your body (but maybe this album will give it to you). An absolute masterpiece - a collection of the songs from the place that inspired this world-famous folk trio" Our Maine Songs Karen | New York | 12/16/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is a wonderful CD. My family and I used to sing along with the radio each year on our summer trip to Maine. We would sing mostly oldies and folk. Since finding Schooner Fare we have new favorites to add to the list and are teaching them to the next generation too. You can't get much better than Scuttlebutt for fun. Schooner Fare makes folk fun and educational too. We always feel good listening to them and you can almost feel the ocean spray on your face as they sing their way into your heart. Their songs evoke photos in the mind which makes the Summer vacation last much longer than anticipated. We love this and all of their albums."
