Eva Cassidy

She was truely gifted with a wonderful voice. It was amazing that she was able to fly under the radar screen for so long with her voice. Now people are finding out about her and her music after a People Magazine article.

Don't buy "No Boundaries." It is said to be "overproduced pop drivel that Eva surely would not have wanted released were she still with us today," and I understand that Eva's parents did not want it released.

Buy The Other Side, Live at Blues Alley, Eva By Heart, Songbird and Time After Time. I dont have Songbird, but I read that it went platinum and recently topped the charts in the UK.

No Boundries is ok, but like you say over produced.
I love "Time after Time" her guitar work on this disk is by far her best. Blues Alley is my second favorite, but no matter wich she was a real talant that gets played all the time here! Thanks to her parents for allowing her to live on.

Whenever I put on an Eva Cassidy cd for someone who never heard of her the response is always the same,"Wow who is that!" I use the first 2 tracks of "Live at Blues Alley" to show off my system. Goose bumps!

I agree with all the posted comments. I think she was gifted with one of the better voices of modern times - clear, with a good range and very, very expressive (perhaps her greatest atribute). Some of the "later" albums are overproduced but listen to as many as you can and choose what pleases you. My favorite is Eva by Heart. Enjoy!
