Captured Essence - Let the collective unconcious awaken.

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: I just saw Patty Larkin live at the Broward Center (Florida) a couple of weeks ago. I purchased the CD at the show. The acoustics of the hall that night were superior (as Larkin noted) luckily so were my seats (3rd row center). This cd truly captures the essence of that live performance (including the perspective from such excellent seats).
Larkin, a truly gifted vocal,instrumental and compositional artist, stands alone in full display on this outing. Both she and the songs are better served by her solitude. Though her abilities in the studio are interesting, her direct live performance is much more powerfull to witness. With this disc, we get a grouping of some of her best songs, given their strongest performances available to date.
Don't Do It, doesn't really work for me (perhaps, I remain too attatched to the Band version). Though still good, I preferred the unprocessed vocal version of "The Book I'm Not Reading", given at the concert, I attended.
My only real complaint, is that the concert lasted well over two hours and the CD doesn't. Too bad, if it did, it might have included some of her entertaining banter. Better yet, would have been inclusion of her "channeling" of Marlena Dietrich, Carmen Miranda, and Ethel Merman. Not to be missed.

Let the collective unconcious awaken.

Awesome!

Review Comments: I saw Patty Larkin for the first time in February and had never heard any of her music, and now I am a FAN! I love GOOD THING and her skills on the guitar are just wonderful and numbing!

WHO IS THIS LADY?

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: If you can handle some of Patty Larkin's songwriting and dry humor, you'll be getting on "A-GoGo" a solo live guitar performance that's as good anybody has ever put down on record. Larkin combines smooth Joni Mitchell control "Banish Misfortune/Open Hand" with Amy Ray speed "Don"t" for a unique style all her own. The songs and the sound quality are "A" perfect and one listen to "Wolf At The Door" will get your batteries charged.

Pretty good CD

 Album Rating: (4 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: I like this CD. It has alot of great sounding tracks and lyrics to enjoy. Concidering that it is a live version you might think the sound quality is bad; well thats not true at all. it sounds fantastic!

Entered a skeptic; left a believer

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: I had never heard of Patty Larkin, or her cadre of loyalists, when I heard 'Do Not Disturb' on the radio. I picked up the CD and loved it, top to bottom (though I admit I skipped over 'Mary Magdalene' when I listened a second consecutive time).

I've never seen her in concert, but I'm sold on her vocals, her lyrics, and her six-string virtuosity.
