5.0 out of 5 stars Well-deserved 2008 Grammy nomination for this album!, December 5, 2008

We all have our bad days on the job, even Amazon music reviewers. A really, really, shamefully bad day, in this case. I sure hope that customers considering this album will take the time to read all the other editorial reviews posted here, as well as the listener reviews. But if they don't, maybe the fact that this album was nominated for a 2008 Grammy will make the difference. It is wonderful to see this album get the positive recognition it deserves.

This album blew me away on first listen, but has amazed me more and more with each listen. That's the beauty of Kate, IMHO, I could listen to just one tune over and over and always hear one more thing I just HAVE to play again, to savor, enjoy, and marvel at.

I invite you to do the same.

I've been a fan of Kate McGarry for many years - and this new album totally pays for my enthusiasm. It's deep, it's smooth, it's easy to listen to over and over and over again - yet it holds a power that makes it so compelling. Just as the title says- "Less Is More" - the use of space and silence enliven each and every song in the album with great awareness, and never in a studied or contrived way. Here is a master coming more and more into her own. HIgh marks!

This review is from: If Less Is More...Nothing Is Everything (Audio CD)

Kate McGarry is a glorious, beautiful talent and human being. She has a clear and glorious singing voice, is a soulful writer of words and melody, a creative and respected band leader - and committed public servant by sharing all of these gifts with the world. Kate is admired by her many fans, and is a true musican's musician. It's a privilege to watch someone like her evolve and share her life experiences through music with each and every recording.

Clearly, Amazon's Eric C.P. Martin could learn a great deal from Kate and band in the humility and grace department. I'm deepy surprised to see something like this allowed to be used as the editorial for her new record. There must be more care in how a musician is represented if a staff writer takes on this task. Can't find anything nice to say? Then post her Bio or glowing NY Times review.
