5.0 out of 5 stars "Dove" by Lisbeth Scott is amazing, May 19, 2002

I heard this CD with a friend who had just bought it and it blew my mind.
I really don't know how to describe the life changing effect this music had on me. I got goosebumps listening to every song. Her voice reminds me a little of Sinead O'Connor and a little of Enya. Her music is so unique!!!! It's like combining folk music with orchestra and some Irish influences. But it's still like pop music. Her lyrics are so poetic.!!!The words take me on a trip!!!! It's like going somewhere you've never been before. Even the art work on the CD book and the CD is incredible!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Melodic. Mezmerizing. Masterful., May 27, 2002

Melodic. Mezmerizing. Masterful. Lisbeth Scott has crafted a compelling portait of love with her third solo offering, Dove. Her sound brilliantly soars above the ever-condeming cage of categorization and tranports listeners to a lush and intimate landscape of truth. That is not an easy task for any artist to accomplish. But accomplished Lisbeth is. At the heart of this impressive collection is her voice. It takes an accomplished vocalist like Ms. Scotts to convey the explicitly naked and revealing nature of her lyrics. A poet with a voice! Playing up her strengths, Lisbeth boldly pushes her vocals to the forefront and doesn't mire the songwriting by over-producing the tracks. She also surrounds herself with an impressive cast of players. Most notably Bernie Locker, who co-produced a track and does some incredible guitar work, and Nathan Barr, who also co-produces a couple of tracks and provides some wonderful instrumentation. The sound is bright, which is another compliment to her production. The most immediately accessible song is "You". With its beautiul melody and catchy chorus, it will surely draw in the most casual of listeners. But it's hard to remain a pedestrian listener in such an absorbing album. While "Beg" delicately builds to a beautiful crescendo, "Smokehouse" breaks the rules of conventional songwriting by throwing away the chorus and instead creates a hauntingly beautiful landcape of unrequited love. Lisbeth takes on a mystical tone with the Middle-Eastern influenced track "Push the River" and vents her enduring optimism on the rocking "Clear". And at the centerpiece of the album is "Crucial", a deceptively sophisticated song that sneaks up on you and hits you with lines like, "..everbody that my fingers touch I'm touching you." Simple and arresting. Lisbeth, both brave and vulnerable, explored the many landscapes of love, discovering simple truths for herself and left with a song in her heart. Take the time to discover this CD for yourself, you will also leave with a song in your heart. Slow down, stop, breathe, listen, explore and just be. That's the point Lisbeth is making, isn't it? Listen and you decide.

Most amazing compilation of beautiful songs with amazing tapestries! I was blown away by Beg, Smokehouse, Crucial, dove , actually every song blew me away. Such a VOICE and what an amazing lyricist--very poetic!! Definitely a CD that transcends all types and barriers. I am recommending it to all of my friends! If you are looking for music that has meaning, that inspires you and touches you deeply, that is original and beautiful, that captivates you and entrances you, then you've found the right CD, "Dove"!
