5.0 out of 5 stars Dark, mellow and calming, December 24, 2002

"Unaccountable Effect", "Rope Trick" and "Deeper Reasons" are stand out songs on this CD for me but all the songs are good. This ranks with the best piano music you will ever hear. "Deeper Reasons" is probably my favorite piano song. Mark Isham adds sound effects to the song. The ending sounds dark, mysterious and dramatic. I bought some of the more recent CD's by Liz Story. I was disappointed, they don't sound nearly as good as this, not to me. Anyone who likes piano and/or new age music should love this.

4.0 out of 5 stars A solid album by an underrated composer, August 21, 2002

While several of Liz Story's albums have acquired more recognition than "Unaccountable Effect", this album is a worthy addition to one's collection of Liz's albums. Among the noteworthy compositions on this record are the calming, meditative tune "Devotion", the incessant yet captivating D minor motif that forms the basis of "Rope Trick", and the haunting (a word that is overused, but is a perfect description to...) "Deeper Reasons"--the latter, by far, being one of my favorite Liz tunes.
Having seen her in concert twice (and having met her backstage both times!), I highly recommend seeing Liz Story in concert. She leaves no fan (and newcomer to her music!) disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Soothing music to pacify the soul and free the mind., August 4, 1998

I have relied on this album for years to help me relax and to center in on what is most important in life. Her music conjures images of peaceful landscapes and dancing rivers which serve as remedies for the tension of modern life.
