Summary: I want Allison back 2010-07-29
Comment: I own every CD Allison has released that I am aware of. All of which were ordered through Amazon as was Crows. I am really a huge fan and feel guilty writing such a poor review. I pre-ordered this CD and could not wait for it to arrive. After listening to the first 3 or 4 cuts I thought they possible had labeled the CD wrong. I then continued to listen the whole CD 3 times trying to like it but instead liked it less each time. The song were sad, depressing and did not lend themselves to showcasing her voice. Those of you who know this artist will agree she has one of the most beautiful voices ever recorded. Maybe she needs to get out of the Big Apple for awhile and return to her roots in for inspiration. Allison's bread and butter is in the Country genre and hopefully she will realize that you don't deviate from the things that are work. I highly recommend all of her previous CD's

Summary: Sexy and sultry, a haunting sound from Allison Moorer 2010-07-20
Comment: I first heard of Allison Moorer when I saw her on the David Letterman show. Since then I have bought all of her CDs. This one is especially good. Buy it and you'll agree.

Summary: "crowing about this album" 2010-05-07
Comment: This is my first review for Amazon. This is a great album, very thoughtful and full of feeling. I've listened to other albums by Allison which I would classify as country and would'nt buy. This one is more in the folk tradition which I like. I'd characterize her style as a cross between Tft Merritt's folk rock and Mary Chapin Carpenter's folk storytelling. This album makes you think about life and times and relationships in your past. It's definitely more melancholy than upbeat, but it's not a downer, either.

Summary: Beautiful voice but songs are average 2010-04-16
Comment: It's painful to give AM less than a stellar review. She has such an amazing voice which is velvety, rich, dusky, and technically near perfection. The songs are problematic on Crows. They aren't very memorable and one in particular is really awful. The choice to record with a piano was a good one as she has the voice to pull it off. Next time more variety in terms of tempo would help. This is just too much of a slog that never really goes anywhere. She sounds a bit like Ann Wilson of Heart in places, Marti Jones in others.
