Biography

Biography by Stephen Thomas Erlewine

After working as a backup vocalist for several country-rock acts and serving as a member of Commander Cody's Lost Planet Airmen for several years during the mid-'70s, vocalist Nicolette Larson launched a solo career in the late '70s. Initially, Larson followed the sound of laid-back Californian country-rock, which resulted in a Top Ten pop ... Read more in Amazon's Nicolette Larson Store

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Listeners familiar with Nicolette Larson's early work as a vocalist with Commander Cody will know right away that this project comes from her smoother-edged solo career. She scored big-easy rock hits, after all, a cynic might add, so it makes sense that her first release of the 1990s (nine years separate this recording and its predecessor, Say When) would be softened by keyboard washes and muted rhythms. But there's a simple reason for this CD's quietude, its floating gentleness: Larson writes in the liner notes that she wrote the songs as she sat by her daughter Elsie May's hospital bed as her daughter recovered. The music had to be all gentle and nonintrusive, and that's how it comes across. This is a great disc to spin as you rock the newborn. Larson's voice peeks out exceptionally as she covers an unreleased Neil Young tune ("Barefoot Floors") and presents a tender reading of "I Bid You Goodnight." Persistently fine layers of accordion and bowed cello give the keyboard-laden environments surprising warmth. --Andrew Bartlett

5.0 out of 5 stars Nicolette Larson's "Sleep, Baby, Sleep" March 18, 2000
By Heidi S
Format:Audio CD
This is a must have for any expectant or new mom! My husband bought this for me when I was pregnant with our third daughter and I listened to it everyday before she was born. When we went to the hospital, I took the tape and a small tape player with me. The gentle and heartwarming melodies instantly soothed my newborn and lulled her to sleep. Many nights, we would both fall asleep on the couch, listening to all of those wonderful lullabies. It is truly the best tape I have ever owned. Now that my "newborn" is two years old, she still asks to listen to "Welca world" ("Welcome to the world") and we absolutely love it. We will never get tired of listening to it. My personal favorites are "Irish Lullably", "Appalachian Lullably", and I dare anyone to listen to "The Moment I Saw You" without needing a tissue! I highly recommend this cd. It is the perfect babyshower gift.

5.0 out of 5 stars Magical! A must for all young families July 9, 1998
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
Magical indeed. Just after our little girl joined us this album made me cry tears of joy with the simple expressions a Mother (and daddy too) feels for her baby. It immediately became our evening feeding-time music.

Now it is part of our bedtime routine for our 1-month old. Daddy gently dances through the first few tunes which includes our baby, Erika's, favorite "Starlight, Starbright" (she really responds to that tune! or is it Daddy's dancing footwork?) Daddy then hands a happy relaxed baby to me for her late dinner and some cuddling. By the last song Erika is full, happy and asleep, Mom is relaxed and content and Daddy is a happy man too.

Another part of the magic from this CD is how it reminds Moms and Dads how special their baby is and how wonderful is the moment they are sharing with the baby. Very therapuetic for the parents, especially after a long day with a baby!

My favorite song is the Irish Lullabye but I love them all. Daddy's favorite is "The Moment I saw you" and the early "danceable" tunes. The whole CD is truly a gem! We look forward to this being a favorite for many years to come.

This is a must have for all young families!

THANK YOU NICOLETTE and company!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best lullaby CD out there! August 8, 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
I've sung the lullabies from this beautiful CD for going on 6 years now! I received it as a gift when my first child was born, and, although I have several lullaby CD's, this is without question the favorite of both my kids. My 6 year old, while well past the rocking to sleep stage, still requests certain of these songs. And, his little sister WILL NOT nap without at least 3 or 4 of Ms. Larson's fabulous songs first. If you buy only 1 CD to play to soothe and calm your child, make it this one.

I chose this product because I heard Nicolette Larson in the Neil Young Crazy Horse Band years ago. She has such a soothing voice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Soothing music for a baby.
This is perfect music without any harsh tones to put a baby to sleep and Nicolette's voice is a joy to listen to. She is sadly missed in the music world.
