Editorial Reviews

Victory Music Review

The energy of her music, like the best music of women's and civil right movements, has the power to sustain and encourage us... Her music penetrates through numbness to reveal, affirm and inspire our lives.

Maine Public Radio

Strong writing, great musicianship, fabulous production.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful,Healing, July 14, 2008

By	Wanda L. McLean "Wicked Mutha" (Maine) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

When I first heard this song it was at a seminar for Head Start programs in Maine. The speaker had us close our eyes and just listen to Libby's "How Could Anyone". As a survivor of sexual, physical and psychological abuse as a child, this song hit me hard.This was the first part in my healing. I realized no one had the right to make me feel bad about myself. This is a song for ALL to listen to. BTW, at that seminar, there wasn't a dry eye in the room after this song was played.How Could Anyone

5.0 out of 5 stars Healing Songs, Beautiful Singer, October 28, 2007

By	Kathleen Hanisee "Kathleen Hanisee" (New York City, NY) - See all my reviews

This recording is amazing, powerful, healing, restorative, beautiful, loving, diverse, uplifting, inspiring, intelligent, compassionate, delightful. It's 10 songs -- including her world famous anthem "How Could Anyone" (How could anyone ever tell you, you were anything less than beautiful?...)-- are drawn from her four other gorgeous folk recordings. As a songwriter, Libby is funny, warm, and wise all at once, and her voice speaks right to the human heart. CNN, Readers Digest, and the Associated Press have all done stories on the incredible impact of her songs around the world. This recording shows you why that has happened. This is an album I have given to all my friends and relatives and every one of them has enjoyed it deeply, including children and the very old. Can't go wrong here.

2.0 out of 5 stars somewhat disappointed, April 18, 2009

By	Kathy (Las Vegas, Nevada) - See all my reviews

I bought this CD after hearing one of the songs at a funciton that I attended and was really moved by the song. However, after recieving the CD, it was a different version than the original one I heard. That was very disappointing to me. The CD overall is only OK-I would not have purchased it if I had heard it prior to my purchase.
