"This is a beautiful CD! If you get a chance to pick this one up, you're going to love it!" Ron Seggi, USA Radio Network
You know Adrienne from her career as a film and television star. You've seen her in The Fog, Swamp Thing, Cannonball Run, Escape From New York, Creepshow, Back to School,and The Convent, to name a few. You met her as Maude's daughter in the hit television series Maude. Maybe you caught one of the more than hundred other television appearances she made or maybe you saw her playing Oswald's mom on Drew Carey. Right now she is starring in the fantastic HBO series Carnivale and you'd better be watching that.
But what you may not know is that Adrienne started her career as a singer. She was the original Rizzo in the Broadway production of Grease, for which she received a Tony nomination. She has a concert act which has blown away audience across the country.
That's where this cd comes in. Each of these songs was chosen because they have a personal meaning to Adrienne. She sings the hell out of them, both in her act and on the cd. As ARI Magazine says "...her rich, flexible voice, sense of rhythm, great material, fine band and the emotional kick of autobiographic touches culminate in a rousing celebration of life".
"I would like to express my sheer delight in reviewing this brand new CD from Adrienne Barbeau. Adrienne turns plain songs into gorgeous vocals. ...a breathtaking version of Marc Cohn's True Companion. She does her Grease number, "There Are Worse Things I Could Do" and some great love songs that will make your heart go pitter-patter. Truly one of the best new-found hidden talents in an actress who really can sing." Marc Willig, Marc's Musical Notes

Since the '80s, I have loved Adrienne Barbeau. She is an extraordinarily gorgeous woman, and a very talented actress. But I never knew she had such a beautiful singing voice until I bought this album! I love this CD! Adrienne brings a showtune-y edge to the folk songs she chooses, and the effect is quite lovely, and the music she creates resonates. She has a smooth, richly textured, emotive voice that is sure to win over fans of the Female Vocal genre. I hope Adrienne Barbeau makes more wonderful CDS like this one!

Ordered CD from Amazon after reading (and loving) Adrienne's autobiography. I remember seeing Adrienne on "Johnny Carson" during late 70s and she sang "Easy From Now On" (recorded by Emmylou Harris). Please release a new CD soon, and include that song! P.S. Enjoying my "Maude: Season One" DVD, too!
