| "Collaborations turn quiet, confessional folk songs into cinematic
wonders, full of scope and color." - Noel Murray, Performing Songwriter Magazine
"The singers, all apparently inspired by the setting, gave extra
thoughtful, extra intense efforts. If this album has a theme,
it is celebration of the
human spirit and the joy of musicians getting together to participate in
an uplifting performance. Truly a feel-good album for a most
worthy cause. Collaborations is
a stirring, memorable work." MT, Sing Out Magazine.
"This disc represents a slice of the best shows of this inventive
series. Musicians love doing the series because it allows them
to see their creations throught the eyes of other players, in ways
they may not have imagined." Kerry Dexter, Dirty Linen
