"I ordered this recording because Paolo Montalban was one of the lead vocalist and I wasn't disappointed. I think it's great production and my only complaint is there wasn't a larger information sheet on this CD. I would love to introduce this CD to the public at large, so they can enjoy this for not only the musical content but the actual information on the asian american experiences of chinese, but other asian groups!!! I highly recommend this to everyone!"
This is a must buy!

"I thoroughly enjoy this new musical. If you want to hear Paolo Montalban sing again, this is the album to buy. His voice is absolutely amazing: sexy and powerful. I listen to the duet 'Much like You' by Paolo and Fay Ann Lee over and over again and never get tired of it. The mother(Ching Valdes/Aran)'s unique voice in 'Only Home' is refreshing too. I look forward to seeing this on stage. It will be a lot of fun."
Great music & lyrics-you feel the emotion in this rendition

"This musical tells the experiences of Asians moving to America. It describes the struggle of maintaining one's culture while trying to fit in to a new one. It would be great to see this produced on stage or as a TV movie (PBS or A & E - are you listening?). The singing on this CD is excellent - the story comes to life and you can feel their pain and triumph! Particularly noteworthy is the performance by Paolo Montalban - his voice is clear, melodic, and powerful. I'm looking forward to hearing more from this young talent!"
