Stunning.. February 27, 2008 R. K. Martin ..is the only word for this album. I have never heard such a pure voice - you may have heard the songs before but you have never heard them sung like this. Eva's voice was unique - how very sad that the only video in existence of her singing is some amatuer footage taken at Blues Alley - where some of these tracks were recorded. If you can listen to "Autumn Leaves" without a lump in your throat - then you have no soul my friend.
I love this album December 28, 2007 Neil Butler (Poole) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is a wonderful collection of Eva Cassidy tracks. Standout songs for me are Fields of Gold and Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Both songs (along with many others) send a shiver down my spine. Sung with such great tencity and emotion, it's such a shame Eva is no longer with us. A great listen.

Goosebumps November 16, 2007 A. Henderson (Bristol, England) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this years ago. When it came on the radio I had to stop the car and grab pen and paper to note who this was. I have never heard such a pure and moving voice. Few people can make "Somewhere over the rainbow" there own and make people want to buy their version. A great artist if you like pin drop performances that bring a tear to the eye. This is her best CD some of the others are not in the league of this one. A sad loss
So beautiful ... February 7, 2007 hmcni (Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is such a wonderful album ... but how could it really be anything but wonderful when it features the most beautiful talent of the late Eva Cassidy. The mix of tracks is perfect as is her interpretation of every song. This is just so beautiful, so evocative, so haunting that, if you're anything like me, it will be likely to bring tears to your eyes - tears of joy that we have such wonderful music in the world and of sadness that Eva can no longer provide us with more of hers.
