This album is awarded a top Pittsburgh release of 2006 by WYEP 91.3 FM Pittsburgh. Album Reviews ...a sexy, sophisticated record... the centerpiece is the title track, Kropf's femme fatale vocals beautifully accented by a spare middle-of-the-night backing track that longs to be in a movie soundtrack." - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review "The long-awaited second album from the fresh-voiced Kropf, What Else is Love is a multi-faceted aural digest of styles ranging from jazz to folk, to radio friendly pop. Poignant lyrics and enduring melodies carry each song, showcasing Kropf's maturity as a songsmith...After five years, Kropf hits her mark. Definitely worth the wait." - MugZine "Heather Kropf's second independent, self-produced CD plays like the work of a seasoned pro, and she's beginning to realize that people get it. "What Else is Love" crackles with contemporary folk, pop and jazz elements -- bright ideas framed in solid pop sensibilities performed by Kropf on a 1920s Steinway surrounded by electric instruments." - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "Listening to Heather's music is like turning off the lamp and opening the curtains on a clear day. Let it shine, let it shine, let is shine." - Gardyloo Fanzine "“Pittsburgh has been truly blessed with a very refreshingly gifted singer/songwriter and keyboard artist." - Pittsburgh Magazine
