Title: One hit wonder...I hope not.
Product review: I have been waiting for a new release from Ana Egge since I fell in love with "River Under the Road" two years ago. I still listen to that first album a lot and had great expectations for this new release. But, I'm sorry to report this was a real disappointment. First, why are five of the 12 songs repeats from "River Under the Road?" This new album was recorded at her concerts with no backup. They sound so much better on the studio produced first album. Her voice comes off as flat and the tempo is very slow. A friend walked in when I had it on and thought there was something wrong with my CD player. It even seemed to me that she forgot some lines in one of the older songs. And, why do performers think we want to listen to clapping from the audience or conversation during the performance? I really hope she can pull it together in future releases. The first one is so good.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
