4.0 out of 5 stars I still like It's Good Eve, but Chinatown is awfully good, November 16, 2002

By	terpfan1980 "Barry" (Somewhere near Washington DC, United States) - See all my reviews

I think I still prefer Vonda Shepard's older works, which seemed a little more introspective perhaps. Having said that, the lady has a beautiful voice, and produces great music always. Like others, I was introduced to her work through Ally McBeal and the upbeat tempo title tune for that show. It was a great tune, and only scratches the surface of the talent that Vonda Shepard has.
I've seen her live (a few years ago in the ballroom at Trump's Marina), and would catch her whenever I could. She's currently making appearances on a schedule that can be found at her official site: ... She put on a nice live performance to sample songs from Chinatown and didn't disappoint the crowd, who wanted to hear a little of the tunes she's done on the Ally McBeal soundtracks.
Warning to potential buyers - if you are looking for Ally McBeal pop tunes, don't buy this CD, buy the soundtracks from that show instead.
If you want to hear great tunes of her own that Vonda Shepard has done, then by all means pick up this great disc and enjoy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Totally Amazing!, October 18, 2002

By A Customer

4 months ago, I saw Vonda in concert in Paris... SHE was totally amazing!!! That day,she played 3 songs from Chinatown (Lose My Way, My Whole World and Rainy Days) And I immediatly fell in love with those songs! And NOW I have CHINATOWN...and I can say that all the songs are really GOOD... BEAUTIFUL MUSIC AND LYRICS!!! "The Sunset Marquis" and "Rain Or Shine" are to me, the best songs! Vonda shows us AGAIN that she's really talented! Let's listen "Chinatown"!!
I'm sure you won't be disappointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Vonda does it again!, March 27, 2003

By	Beth Ellenn Reid (Ayer, MA United States) - See all my reviews

This CD is a must get! I admit I'm a huge fan of Vonda. She doesn't dissapoint with Chinatown! If you enjoyed by 7:30 you will love this! It's hard to pick a favorite track on this one but Rain or Shine is it for me. A very special song, one of her balllads to be remembered. My husband and I had the awesome pleasure of seeing her this past weekend, what a show she puts on!We also talked to her afterward. She is such a classsy lady. See her if you can! And get this CD!
