Jewish Joni Mitchell,
By jewessjen "yeah, it's me" (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Songs of the Spirit: Debbie Friedman Anthology (Audio CD)
I belong to the same Temple as Debbie, so maybe I'm biased but...my tastes run Beck/Radiohead/Tori Amos and ironically, she fits into that combination perfectly. This is a religious CD made for those of the Jewish persuasion, to be sure. It's perfect for either private time background music or as thoughtful meditations. Thank G-d Debbie is a Jew and chooses to use her gift to create soundtracks for us. She's a gift from G-d, to be sure. Yeah, ok, some of it is kinda MOR but it's only a few songs. `Miriam's Song' is the bestest, my favorite. Much love to ya, Debbie...

Debbie Friedman is incomparable. This album covers most of her best renditions of traditional Jewish prayers, hymns, and songs.

By Bella Miriam "musicmaven" (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Songs of the Spirit: Debbie Friedman Anthology (Audio CD)
I am waiting for Debbie Friedman's new CD to come out this month, but until then... I love this CD because it has all of your Debbie Friedman favorites and a few songs that you may not have known about, but will come to love. This anthology is great and very complete. Now... that new album, which is coming out has got to be Debbie's best. Did you go to the listen page for it? Awesome.

This double CD has songs to touch your heart for many different occasions including the victory songs of Miriam and Devorah. There is a song to celebrate the new moon, prayer for the sick, Tu B'Shevat, and many other songs to celebrate our faith in the God of our fathers.

Ack! I can't believe I paid money for this! Sadly, I was ordering from a computer without sound, because if I could have previewed I would not have purchased. It's like bad 70s AM "pop" music. Debbie Friedman is so popular, I thought, and I've heard and enjoyed covers of her songs, but gosh the real thing was almost painful to hear. This is her "best of" anthology?? She doesn't have a great voice, and the arrangements range from boring to grating to "what were they thinking??" I bought this to listen to in the car, but I have deleted Songs of the Spirit after 3 honest attempts to listen. Sorry Debbie, but as far as uplifting, sing-along-with-it Jewish music goes, these songs don't hold a candle to, say, Craig Taubman's "Friday Night Live" or Simply Tsfat's "Fresh Air."
I am disappointed. |
