good music and ideas

This sounds completely professional, from recording to end mix. The acoustic guitar performance and accompaniment are equally impressive. This album is not only about the music, though, as the lyrics are thoughtful and expressed with sincerity and emotion. It's a joy to listen to.

I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I started streaming this puppy, but when it started playing I knew that it was a winner. The instrumentation, lyrics, recording/mixing and presentation was excellent. I am reminded of Lily Allen and other popular female singer/songwriters but this album offers something extra. Ruth is a wonderful storyteller so far untainted by the corporate music industry. Her work is quirky, but has a serious side to it as well. I could go on for ages, but I for now just download the album. It is worth the bandwidth and hard drive space.

Tehát számomra már magától értetődő, Ruth Theodore képes megmenteni az angolszász zenei életet csak az egyszerű jelenlétével, akárhányszor hallgathatom, mindig elvarázsol a számokból kiérezhető egyéniség szinessége, szellemisége stb. pedig én freejazz és környékén lakom, oszt mégis. Szuper!

Just wow !

This album starts out good and finishes great.
I'm very picky about the "slow" music i listen to, most of the music i listen to leans towards the metal side(which i am also very picky about lol).
This is just my opinion, but if i say get this album, at the very least you should check out.

Professional

Excellent album, surely one of the best in whole Jamendo. I cannot even believe that it's pubilshed here and you can download it for free. Extremely original in all tracks, well played and sung. Expressive voice, one of the best here on Jamendo (and not only here) and I'm a singer myself. I think that Ruth will be one of those that will achieve the jump into fame.

Special.

What a find! Reminds me of the music that seemed to be released on a regular basis in my youth (late '80's mid '90's). Guitar sounds top notch, whilst the production has let some of the timing issues through and the whole album sounds better and more natural for it. I'm very excited about this artist.

Pleasant surprise

The guitar playing is what does it for me right off the start, the lyrics and the way they are presented was the icing on the cake. On top of that, you've got some fantastic support music. This album is definitely worth a curious listen.

Lovely Ani DiFranco-esque Acoustic Goodness

26/10/08

The first song, "Overexpanding", is a creepy masterpiece. The rest of the album is quite different - more stripped down, with a healthy dose of Ani DiFranco. Good stuff!

Mountain Mirrors

A classic.

This one was quite a find for me here and honestly sold me on the greatness and potential of Jamendo.

I am fussy when it comes to singer/songwriter stuff, and this cd blows me away.

I would put this album right up there with Damien Rice's "O". Which says a ton. Respect.

Wormfood imho will live on long after we *all* become wormfood.
