"Ever been hungry for something, but just didn't know what? These selections, touching upon family and home, fill the ear nicely. The mellow strains of Sharon singing in her native Navajo with the companion guitar, violin and cello instruments make for a fully satisfying experience. This is my first CD of Sharon's material and it most assuredly won't be the last!"
This Navajo singer is representative of Native america
