GREAT first release!

This is a great watermark for Ms. Jen Porter. \"These Are The Days\" has a somber feel to it that soothes you with the ethereal quality of the band and her wonderful harmonies. The rest of the album flows quite nicely. However, the track that REALLY catches me is the last one on the EP, \"Last Night.\" A very stark, passionate and gutsy way for Jen to close her first recording. (I only WISH that she would do this one live someday.)
One thing is for sure, Jen\'s vocals (both recorded and live,) will stop you in your tracks, grab your attention, and demand your respect. Regardless, it is very obvious what her mission statement is: An outspoken woman that WILL be heard through song.

Faces is a great debut for Jen. It exhibits the wide range of her voice and talent as a song writer. From the subtle coolness of "Ray" to the funky groove of "These are the Days", Jen displays an ambition that has only begun to blossom. A little under-produced, but check this one out. I think we can expect great things from her in the future.

JEN PORTER PACKS IT ALL IN

Jen has made a great leap forward into the music industry.

While it is a "debut CD" (produciton quality) it is WELL WORTH its weight in the music within. As time goes on, Jen Porter will surely give us added additions and a high quality in the albums to come. I definately would recomend everyone to give this one a look see and make it a part of your collection, it will truly add value to ANYONE's personal colection
