4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful 'Sound', August 17, 2001

After entering the scene as a pop balladeer, Sheena Easton switched gears and attitude and unleashed A PRIVATE HEAVEN, which housed the infamous hits 'Strut' and 'Sugar Walls' and made her a sex symbol after years as a Streisand clone. After the commercial failure of DO YOU, it seems as though her label was a bit skeptical about her retail future, so they held on to this album without ever releasing it. It's not completely hard to understand why--after her success as a dance-oriented artist, this album was virtually all ballads, so there reservations may have had some foundation--we'll never know. It's a shame they didn't give it a try, because it's probably her most consistent album next to THE LOVER IN ME, and doesn't sound nearly as dated as her other EMI albums from that period. There's really not a bad song here--the standouts, though, are definately 'Wanna Give My Love', 'The Last To Know'( later recorded by Celine Dion), and the album's highlight, the Prince-penned 'Eternity'. Vocally, Easton' voice was at the height of its' glory--this should have really reinforced her standing as a first-rate song interpreter. As it stands, it remains a diamond in Easton's sometimes spotty album catalog.

I went on a Sheena buying spree and went for the CDs I didn't own (most of them) and replacing my vinyl. What's up with MCA not releasing this?? After drudgingly listening to "My Cherie" and "No Strings" when this came I thought "Well, I already know "Eternity" so maybe it's not gonna be such a drag!" Well this to me is one her most consistent and listenable recording projects of her career. Her voice is in great form, the material excellent. I just wish One Way Records had included more information on the CD liner as there are really no credits except the writers. There isn't a dull track on this recording. Sheena really got short shrifted career wise. Who the hell managed her anyway?

5.0 out of 5 stars This Sheena Easton "time capsule" one of her best, October 6, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: No Sound But a Heart (Audio CD)

Perhaps the days of sequenced synth-pop from the 1980's are over. That doesn't keep this album from sounding as refreshing today as it would have been if it had been released back in 1987 when it was made. Who knows, Sheena could have had a couple of more top-ten hits if some of these songs had been released. From timeless ballads for which Sheena is famous, like "Still Willing to Try," to electronic-drum-and-synthesizer period pieces such as "No Sound But A Heart," the songs on this album provide a rare confluence of quality song material, professional production, and Sheena's beautifully expressive voice.
