One jewel of a CD. If you like early Joni Mitchell albums, you'll love this one. Lovely melodies intertwined with sophisticated lyrics just tugs at your emotions. There are no weak songs here. Back-up musicians did a superb job, especially Joe Reggiatore's guitar solos, who also co-wrote the songs. A definite buy.

On Saturday November 4th I was indeed fortunate in that my firm sent me to the RockrGirl Conference 2000. I was there to check out promising artists. Let me tell you, the place initially seemed like a DIVE, and lived up to my expectations until Janie Cribbs came on! Wow, the stories she tells, you know that she has lived them. You also know that we could all learn from them. Believe me, this band is coming up SOON! Do yourself a favor & check these angels out!

Wow! This CD is fresh and ½. Janie and that voice of hers can float you to heaven on a cloud and slam you right back to earth before you know what hit you. I just can't get enough of it.

The guitar work...is this guy dancing on those strings or what.

I don't really know what to say but I could'nt just sit here. Keep this stuff comin...I'm jonesin' for more. Keep spilling your hearts, I'll be there.

Not knowing what to expect, I bought this album because of her last name. I am so glad that I did! Janie's songs make me think while I'm driving or working. These lyrics and music are very grabbing and tug on the heartstrings. I can see a beautiful portrait of broken hearts, mended by the strength of will and new relationships. Janie's voice is incredible and addictive. The keyword from this album seems to be "door", which seems to refer to opportunities of relationship. Add this album to your life!

This CD is one that you will make your heart sing! Janie's voice and words are powerful. The songs are stories that everyone can relate to.You can feel the heart and soul, that has been put into this beautiful collection of songs. Joe Reggiatore is an excellant guitar player, in "Carried Away" listen to him play ! "Strenght is my religion " is a song that will move you, for everyone that has taken the next step even when they thought they could not. "Save yourself" listen to the words, feel the music. Words to live by. This CD is one that will soon be your all time favorite !

This CD will make you look at life with new eyes .

Treat youself to this CD, Janie Cribbs is a woman to listen to now ! If you enjoy Bonnie Raitt, Robbie Robertson, Sting, Shawn Colvin,Sarah McLachlan... you will definitively love this CD.
