4.0 out of 5 stars Definitely NOT the life of the party..., February 22, 2001

As I was meandering through a music store, randomly perusing through the new releases section... I heard "Notes From the Waiting Room" drifting from the store speakers. And I knew I had to have this CD. The rest of the songs were not bad, either! The melodious piano intros, the simplistic poetic lyrics and the small town feeling of WGC got me hooked. Some of the songs are a bit melancholy, folk-ish and maybe even twangy but that's the charm of these songs and why I like it. There are even interesting acoustic instruments that contribute to album, such as the banjo and the mandolin mixed in with the good ol' piano. "Hesitation" stand out as beautiful instumental piece, the dejected spirit of "Southbend of a Northbound Train" is strangely haunting and "The Beautiful Song" is quite catchy. I have warn you, it's not the most chipper or light-hearted cd... but still great stuff to listen to if you want to contemplate about life and other obscure things. This newest WGC cd and I are quite well acquainted in the wee hours of the morning.

5.0 out of 5 stars WGC keep delivering., July 7, 2001

What a pleasure it has been to follow the progress of Willard Grant Conspiracy from the promising beginnings of their first record 'Flying Low', to see that promise delivered on '99's 'Mojave' to this, their latest and most fully formed album 'Everything's Fine'. Put simply, 'Everthing's Fine' is a glorious collection of songs which will have you hooked from the first play. The dynamics are the same, Robert Fisher's deep soulful voice over WGC's trademark lulling, melancholy guitars, however the sound is warmer and on songs such as 'Christmas In Nevada' and the soaring 'Kite Flying' you feel the undeniable pull of all the elements coming together to create this unique and poignant gem. Again, this is a pleasure to own.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Perfect Blend of all Likes of Perfection, April 10, 2001

This is one of the greatest unheard of bands. Although this is not the best albulm the guys have produced it is definatley worth your money. Imagine yourself up in the mountains, during a heavy snowstorm, circled around the fire playing cards and drinking with your best buddies and girlfriends.
