5.0 out of 5 stars A delicious blend, 8 Dec 2004
By John Booth (Northwich, Cheshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This CD is one of those rare releases that sets your hairs on end. From the first playing I was hooked and still, several plays later, I can say it is for me the best new thing I've heard this year. Nothing complicated here, indeed the accompaniment is commendably restrained - just gorgeous harmonies from three voices that blend supremely well. These three Canadian lasses provide a mixture of covers, both traditional and contemporary, and also supply some well-crafted originals - the highlight for me was "Come All You Sailors", though every track could be a contender for "best".

They are touring the UK in January 2005 - check out their gig list and catch them if you can. This time they'll be in smallish intimate venues where you can get close; next time they could be distant specks on a large stage. I suspect they could end up bigger than the Be Good Tanyas, possibly even to the heights of the Dixie Chicks.

Faultless.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jaw-droppingly bone-liquifying wonderful, 5 May 2005
By Damon Reynolds "pynkandfluffy" (london) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Impossible to gush enough about this vitually unknown little album. Heard a couple tracks off it on Radio Paradise and the rest just blew me away. The best album I've bought in a year (out of 50 or so). Alison Krauss meets Hem with a hint of Sarah McLachlan. One Voice and Arlington are stand out tracks but it is really filler free.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mindblowingly Beautiful, 21 Nov 2005
By Dan Craggs (South Wales, UK) - See all my reviews
  
I first heard the Jennys on Radio 2, and when 'One Voice' came on I, no joke, jumped out of bed to scribble down some lyrics and find out who it was. I eventually found that 'One Voice', along with two others were available on the Wailin' Jennys' web site. All three were incredible songs, and I was sure the other songs here couldn't match that standard. But boy was I wrong.

From start to finish, every single second of every single song on this album is a perfect blend of incredible tunes, perfected mixing, and of course the spine-tingling, ear-warming, delightfully atmospheric elegant harmonies that these three ladies produce. Heck, I think even my speakers enjoyed the songs.

I'd pick a favourite, but I can't. All I will say is that if you buy just one album, buy this one. You will NOT be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection. Mindblowing. Amazing
If I could give this more than 5 stars I would. Beyond perfection, almost. One Voice is stunning. Saucy Sailor bouncy. I could go on. As all the other reviewers say, buy it.
