5.0 out of 5 stars get up from yopur chair and find it now., April 10, 1999

This review is from: Change of Habit (Audio CD)

As the Poor Clare's former bassist and Beth Patterson's best friend, I was compelled to write in about what a splendid effort this CD is from the band. Beth's virtuosity continues to shine, and Justin and Patrick are clearly in their respective elements. My personal favorite is the Manx tune "Three Little Boats," but don't be swayed by my opinion....listen and learn for yourself. If you ever find yourself in the innards of the city of my birth, seek them out.

This is a gorgeous CD, with excellent musicianship and arrangements. I wish now that I had scooped up their other CDs when it was easy. Quite a shame that they are out of print now, and moreso that the group is no more. Order this; the wait for delivery will be worth it. SONGS FOR MIDWINTER is also lovely.

I was in New Orleans for work for a few weeks in 1997, and I had to go see Preservation Hall. After watching the shows there, I left and ran into O'Flaherty's there, where the Poor Clares were playing. I was hooked. I went every night, and there was some mix of this group of musicians (Patrick, Betsy, Beth and Justin). I bought all of their albums available. I was heart broken when O'Flaherty's closed, but am glad these guys are all still playing.
They were great live, and the album does a good job at creating that live feel. The only thing missing is the banter between songs.
