4.0 out of 5 stars What Will it Take?, December 24, 2000

As a long-time fan of Tish Hinojosa, I often find myself wondering as I listen to her incredible voice just what it will take for Tish to step up from cult heroine to superstar diva. She has most of the ingredients: bottomless talent, an enchanting voice, grace, charm and beauty. Apparently what she doesn't have is the desire to sell out. Having seen her a dozen times in concert and having heard all her music I can tell you that she deserves to be heard and to be famous. Destiny's Gate is yet another triumph for Tish. The industry reviewer felt that the country-flavored songs are this CD's strong point-I feel the opposite. I think that the best songs are the title cut, the Spanish-flavored Esperate, and the tour de force, Noche Sin Estrellas. That song is one of the most emotional she's ever done; the sheer beauty of the music and the melancholy of the lyrics will leave you stunned. Throughout the album, Tish is not constrained to stick to one theme and run with it. She does it her way and that is part of her charm as you never know what to expect. I recommend Destiny's Gate to anyone who appreciates well-written songs and a captivating voice to interpret them.

I had heard one of her songs on Folk Alley and I thought I would try out the CD. It is now a regular on my listening schedule. The Spanish and English mix is unique and put together well. The music and the words are powerful. I highly recommend this CD.

If you loved "Culture Swing" and are looking for more, this CD isn't it. Tish's voice is still wondeful but the music and lyric's are more Nashville. This CD reminds me more of Mary Chapin Carpenter than the Tish I fell in love with on "Culture Swing".
