Editorial Reviews

Wall Street Journal, November 1, 2002
"...she has charm to burn, a smile that could give you hope in February and sings like nobody's business."

Jonathan Schwartz, National Public Radio
"... a stunning ascension of intuitive, intimate singing in a voice as singular as there currently is."

Humphrey Lyttelton, BBC Radio 2
"Everything about it, choice of songs ... the glorious voice, leaves one searching for a more superlative word than 'greatest' !'


Customer Reviews

Atmosphere Creator4
I was introduced to this CD while strolling through one of those high end antique shops. Each song is inviting and warm, and it made we stay much longer than I otherwise would have because I enjoyed the music so. An excellent CD to play when you entertain a mixed group of people since everyone can enjoy it, even if it's not the typical music they would otherwise listen to.

WHAT A DISCOVERY5
Cruising the CDNOW website is one of my very favorite things to do. I had never heard of Stacey but clicked on "The Boy Next Door" and sampled a few tunes. I ordered the CD and liked it so much, that I ordered - and now have - all of hers.
Sexy, soulful, jazzy, impeccable musicianship and even "dreamy" are words I would use to describe her talents. What tonal accuracy and vibrato!!
In my book, she outshines all the very good Monheits, Eders, and Kralls out there.
Keep singin', Stacey - we LOVE IT!!!

Dreamsville it ani't!2
