WHEN IS SHE COMING BACK?????
author: definitely a fan
Is 5 stars all you got? This cd is a great one. As a matter of fact, it is one of my favorites when I want to get away from the same ol' same ol' of mainstream pop. Easy to listen to, hard to forget. I bought it when she was in Austin at "Gaby and Mo's" So what I wanna know is WHEN IS SHE COMING BACK???

Proud, and not surprised...

This CD represents the great work that Courtney Fairchild is capable of. Her voice is moving and easy to listen to. Having heard her play many times before, it is great to hear her on a CD, with great backup artists.
Buy this CD, and you will not be disappointed. I know that I was not...but then, I was Courtney's high school choir director!

Beautiful music for the searching and hopeful
author: James Hargrave
The music is plaintive and elegant. There's a taste and style to the words and the playing that is rare in any form of music today. At the same time you can be decieved by what's being sent into your ears.
Possibly Japan at first listen sounds like a throwaway pop track, a good one, but a pop track nonetheless. On further listening however, there's a depth unbecoming of a true throwaway pop track and what you realize you've got on your hands is a hidden pop gem. A rare thing to come across these days.
From Constant Chords to Moving, these are six tracks that you won't soon shuffle off your heart or you mind. The playing across the board is way above par. Whether it's Courtney's studied, intricate playing or the deliberate and inspired support of Sally Semrad, John Wood or Brady Mosher, you're going to be hard pressed to find a better played record anywhere. Aside from her own musicianship, Courtney's surrounded by an incredible and talented roster of supporting players, egging her on.
Courtney's singing on this record is evocative and revealing, but also, again, plaintive and elegant. "Simple and Distorted" seems to be, probably, Courtney's wake up call to the world. "I'm here, I'm singing, get used to it." Get used to it. Learn the words and sing along because Courtney Fairchild is going to be here for a long time.
