Great Stuff
author: Carlos E Zeisel
John and Mary pick up where they left off when they left the 10000 Maniacs. The melodies are haunting and the innovation is incredible.

Music with spirit!
author: www.SmallestStep.com
From the opening track (A Brighter Day) until the closing track (My Shattered Illusions), John & Mary prove that in this day and age good music can still be made. The best choice for a single on the album would have to be Beyond Love, a catchy song about loss. The amazing cover of Vacant Chair shows the diversity of styles John & Mary play extremely well. Pick this album up, it's the best thing to come out of the year 2002!

A welcome return of a duo with a haunting aura
author: Keith Wright
"Haunting" is a good description of John and Mary's songs: they sound fresh no matter how many times you've heard them, yet it is as you had always "known" them. The melodies of "A Brighter Day," "Halo of Stars," "My Shattered Illusions," with their elusive, evocative words, stick with you. The whole album is of the highest quality. Here's hoping they come back soon with more!

glad to see them back
author: George
It was great to see a new release from John and Mary and this one doesn't disappoint. Mary's voice and viola playing are outstanding. Would like to hear more of John's vocals though, but that aside, almost as good as the first two albums. Can't go wrong buying this one!
