Synopsis

Product Description

"This is a must have CD for every Cris Williamson fan or wanna be fan!! Every song is a favorite. Out of the 4200 songs on my ipod, of which over 200 are Cris, this CD is my most played. And Hecho En Mexico is my number one played song. The music on this CD is classic Cris...you won't be disappointed."
A joy!

"I LOVE this album! And I have just about all of Cris's music. I confess that when I first got Real Deal, I was not bowled over, and put it aside for awhile. I got it back out a few days ago and played it to find that its simplicity and clarity truly grows on you. Now I'm hooked! It's now getting quite the workout.



There are so many songs that really stick with you--Songbird, Footprints, True Story/True Blue, and My House Tonight, to name a few. And I have been singing "Hecho En Mexico" ALL DAY LONG! It's the ultimate addictive song, perfectly crafted, with its breezy Latin rhythm and delightful lyrics--it transports you South of the Border, and gives you the sense that you're sipping a perfect coin Margarita on a sunny balcony overlooking the ocean, your lover by your side, not a care in the world! If I could only have one song off this album, it would be this one--but I'm glad I don't have to choose!

"Cris has outdone herself with Real Deal. From her signature easy to follow lyrics to her impressive deeper alto voice. I am so happy she is still recording after 30 years.



She gets better with age, more insight, more fun and sexier than ever. The last cut on this CD "Real Deal" is SO sultry that I nearly ran off the freeway!



Atta woman Cris!"
