Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Reminds me of Buckingham Nicks . . . Comment: . . . though less flashy. Buckingham Nicks + Bonus is the album that led Mick Fleetwood to invite Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to join Fleetwood Mac. Any guitarist who wants to be truly versatile should listen to that album -- and this one. A few portions of the vocals are a little too "sweet" for my tastes but there are many beautiful passages (harmonies, melodies and guitar) that nearly anyone can enjoy. Customer Rating: Summary: Nobody Know's Me at All Comment: Deb Talen sings like a beautifully made instrument with a distinct pronunciation with an amazing twist in lyrical pitch. Take that and mix it with Steve Tannen's slightly earthier sound and you have an unbelievably beautiful mix of harmonies with great pop folk hooks that are so incredibly well crafted. The lyrics are super and the music is so good and worthy of repeating that it gives one plenty of opportunity to try to decipher them and take away what you will from them. If after listening to The Weepies "Say I Am You" and it doesn't calm the beast in you, then nothing will. Customer Rating: Summary: Fresh and superb Comment: There is nothing that sounds like The Weepies. Alternative, acoustic, folk, indie; it's all in there. You will like it with the first listen, but not in the way you like a pop jingle that goes round and round in your head. This sound and words and the images provoked dive deep and keep running. Give yourself a treat and listen. And then listen again. And then again... Customer Rating: Summary: Two artists for the price of one. Comment: I love this CD. I have been listening to it since I bought it. I heard the CD 1st on NPR. They have a great love story. I really enjoy the first three songs. Painting by Chagall is my favorite. It just makes me happy. Customer Rating: Summary: Got any room left on that couch? Comment: Because once you put this album on you feel like scooting on the couch with yer las and canoodle for hours straight. Pretty and pretty nice to listen to. A absolute worthy follow-up of Happiness. To make a short story even shorter: if you like mild music that soothes through through the room - order now! More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: The Weepies are a duo of songwriters Deb Talan and Steve Tannen. How can one not help but be delighted when two such similar sound names align with one another? Perfectly matched, the thirteen songs are quiet but insistent, with lyrics full of pop smarts and poetic depth. Narratives, whether fragmented or direct, empower most of the songs, giving even first-person vantage points a solid foundation. Talan does the bulk of the lead vocals, and her voice is a confident instrument, full of sly surprise and subtle phrasing. The pair's harmonies are thoughtful and evocative, oftentimes utilizing less than obvious intervals. In fact, the chorus vocals owe more to great radio pop of the sixties and seventies than to the various contemporary strains of folk and Americana. --David Greenberger
