5.0 out of 5 stars I'm not a fan of giving out 5-star reviews usually....., August 2, 2005

I'm not a fan of giving out 5-star reviews usually.....but Begonias is a fabulous cd.

This is more of a Thad Cockrell album than a Caitlin Cary album. Thad takes the lead on most of the vocals, with Caitlin lending support. They sound wonderful together.

The music itself is very engaging. This isn't the usual country-pop music, which is mainly played on the radio nowadays.

Begonias sounds like it could have been recorded in the golden age of country, back in the 50's or 60's. It has a vintage feeling to it.

Go buy this album and support great music. It's worth the full retail price.

Begonias is about as authentic and as American as good music can be. One of my favorite records of the year.

I love this cd! It is beautifully written, played, sung and produced. It works as soothing background music, as well as it does in your earphones. Thad's voice is a high pitched world of hurt, Caitlin's is a warm heart. It doesn't seem like it would work, but it does, wonderfully, whether they are singing as a duet, background, harmony, whatever, they sound GREAT together. The production of Brad Jones is perfect-the musicians are excellent, and he doesn't get in their way. The vocals shine bright around the music, and they compliment each other in a way that is often missing on some recordings. There have been a lot of comparisons to the duets sung by George Jones and Tammy Wynette. Thad and Caitlin do not sound like George and Tammy, but their voices blend just as well together as George and Tammy's did, and these songs are exactly the type of songs they used to record. If you like the more traditional country sound of the '60's and '70's, do yourself a favor-buy this now, because you won't hear it on the radio or see a video on CMT, and I'd really hate for you to miss it. Highly Recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Album of the Decade!, February 3, 2006

As a rule I do not write product reviews, but this album demands to be the exception to that rule. If you are looking for honest, moving, life changing music, you must own this album.

I would buy this album again, even at twice the price. I have listened to it over and over, and have to say that from the first listen on, I have been unable to find a weak track.

As my words cannot do justice to this wonderfull album, I will leave my review at that, but please, please do yourself a favor and buy it. You will not regret it!
