Customer Reviews

Excellent variety
I purchased this CD for music to accompany the digital pictures I took on a vacation to Alaska. What I didn't expect was to become somewhat addicted to certain selections. Now, I frequently listen to the CD in my car on the way to and from work. It is both relaxing and energizing. I particularly like anything by David Schwartz, who is responsible for the well known "Theme from Northern Exposure" (which is too short here--I wanted more). His other numbers on this CD, "The Ladder" and "Mooseburger Stomp" are rousing and fun. I fell in love with the beautiful, soothing, deep alto voice I heard in "Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams." What a surprise to learn that it belonged to Mary Ford (with Les Paul)! I hardly paid any attention to her in the 1950's. "Lay My Love" is infectious, anticipatory and wonderful. Who can resist the walking-waltz pace of "Un Mariage Casse?" Finally, Joanne Shenandoah will surely get her wish with her enchanting rendition of "I May Want a Man."

Don't tease us, please give us more!!
Please don't tease us; put all the music on all of the shows on a CD and we will buy it. Simple as that. There is so much weird music that sets a mood that I want to be in sometimes, and a CD with all the music would allow me to go where I want to be. Only a fool record producer would ignore a request like this!! Thanks.

Only for hard core NXers
I bought the first CD and loved it, so i expected to love this one as well. This CD just isn't up to the same level as the first one though. the songs in large part are forgetable with the notable exeptions of the two native american songs at the beginning and end, the crane dance song (lay my love) and wrap your troubles in dreams. unless you just have to have everything NX related, want two good native american songs, or have the urge to try and teach a crane a mating dance, this CD just isn't worth it.
