Very Enjoyable CD
author: Rhonda
I'm greatly enjoying this cd. I bought it primarily because I love Heather Masse's voice. For those who don't know, she's been a member of the Wailin' Jennys for about 3 years now, used to be a member of The Wayfaring Strangers, and is currently a member of at least 2 other groups besides the Jennys. I'm not especially a fan of bluegrass instrumentals, but I find that I'm enjoying hearing the extended instrumental intervals and even the two purely instrumental cuts. There's plenty of variation in tempo and style. The cd includes several songs that were unfamiliar to me, two of which were penned by members of JKS. The only song that I've not been able to get into is "Louise" and that might be because I can't make out all the lyrics. Otherwise, the cd is terrific. Masse's voice is as beautiful as ever and, as others have observed, the instrumentals are "tight".

Wish when they played in Boston they\'d been in a venue where I could see and HEAR them! Had to get the cd and am delighted with it.
