5.0 out of 5 stars
a nearly-lost modern classic, October 6, 2004
This review is from: Gentle Creatures (Audio CD)
Why isn't this album more popular, especially with the rising popularity of 'Alt Country' among hipsters and others who wouldn't be typically thought of as country music fans?
I haven't figured it out.
The superb rating on allmusic.com isn't misleading -- this is a beautiful album, and any fan of Patsy Cline, The Flatlanders, and the haunting, bittersweet sadness that only great country music can inspire will love it to death. Paula Frazer's voice is earnest; it resonates real heartache without sounding melodramatic or overwrought.
Hopefully, this isn't an album to be lost forever. Like The Flatlander's debut, it might just resurface to surprise an entire new generation of country music fans.

this is pretty decent i guess., May 25, 1998

this is kind of what I wish country music sounded more like. It has hank williams like lyrics with a girl singer, who is really good at singing. She has a strong voice that some might say is haunting or something. I dont think that I would be compromising my immense credibility if i said that this is a quality work. Ok then.
