Format:Audio CD
This is Mary's first album of new material in over 6 years and I'm pleased to say it has been worth the wait.
Although I've been a long time fan I have to admit that I've been little disappointed in Mary's last couple of albums (`Full Tide' & `Speaking With The Angel') which seemed to lack the consistency and sparkle of her earlier classics such as `Babes In The Wood' and `Holy Ground'.
Mary has always been a great storyteller and she really shines on this collection of mostly ballads. Her voice has matured with age and has a vulnerability that is particularly well suited to songs such as `Faith In Fate' and `Wizard Of Oz' written by her son Danny O'Reilly. These tracks along with the poignant `The Night Was Dark And Deep' are in my opinion some of Mary's best recordings.
If you haven't listened to Mary for a while or are just discovering her music for the first time, then you are in for a treat. Highly recommended.

After a long gap this is a great return and can be thoroughly recommended. It is a return to her best after some albums that hadn't been so special. She is one of my favourite singers.

Another lovely album from Mary Black. I wouldn't say its her best but as usual the songs creep into your soul and work a little magic and the album grows on you until it feels like an old friend. Shes a great singer.

Not the Mary Black of past but still good.
Music does have a sometimes country feel, possible to please our american cousins but she still comes through. Read more
