5.0 out of 5 stars Music for the soul, February 22, 2002

By	Jonathan Spurrier (Dallas Tx) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sonia Dada (Audio CD)

The fact that these guys can pull off acapella live is incredible. I had the great fortune of hearing this cd when it was released and seeing them live 3 weeks later made me a lifelong fan. The harmonies are rich, the music original, the feeling of performance is deep from the soul.

This is a cd you share with your very best friends and rave about...maybe even loan it out...or not. I have been without for several years and just refound it online.

After you listen to and soak in the experiance of listening to this self titled disc, if you really want to blow your mind, realize one thing..... these guys can do it all live, and do it incredibly. It's almost overwhelming. You won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars The album that started it all, January 6, 2005

By	Gigman (Indiana) - See all my reviews

this is the album that started it all. Now, scores of dedicated Sonia Dadaites exist, and pack concert halls whenever they perform. This band has something different. They are different kinds of people. They are truly gifted musicians and singers, and as nice of people as you'd ever want to meet. They'll stop and talk, sign autographs, whatever for their fans. They're as beautiful as their music. And there music is something to behold. It gets inside your head, your heart and your soul, and leaves you with the feeling that music should. If you've not heard Sonia Dada, do yourself a favor and give it a listen. You'll never be the same again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, but...., March 6, 2003

By	S. Hawkins "jimmy_cello" (New York, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Sonia Dada (Audio CD)

The songs here are great, the singers are great, and the musicians are great. So why only 4 stars?

The band here sounds rooted in the early-90s...with all of the nasty baggage that goes along with it. For every amazing guitar lick or fat bass line (sadly, the bass is a little hard to hear at points), there is an incredibly grating synth noise. It's too bad this happened, because this is otherwise an amazing album.

It's still worth buying, but one would be best advised to buy the album along with "Lay Down and Love It Live" - in which they really start to dig into these songs and play the hell out of them.
