Complex, diverse and often compelling........

"Wendy Bucklew is one of those rare female artists who can mix emotional subtlety with straightforward honesty and create a listening experience that is both comforting and bracing in turns...Wendy's songs are complex, diverse and often compelling.... describing a compassionate but uncompromising engagement with life's relational vignettes and sagas.....she also displays her acoustic guitar chops on several songs, most notably on the final cut, the instumental "Different Everytime," which is turning out to be one of my favorite songs on this album--puts me in the mind of Dick Rossmini, a 12-string acoustic virtuoso of yore.....if people are still selling this disc for around a buck (or less), it not only is a shame, it's an absolute steal, and no way you should pass it up....I'm sure that you will find that one--or several--of the songs on this disc will turn out to be worth that much (and more!) to you.....stone guarantee!trust me on this one........"

"I've been a fan of Wendy's for many years. I lived in Atlanta and discovered her wonderful voice by accident and instantly feel in love with her sound. I regularly check to see if she has a new album since I know it will be wonderful. Now that I've moved, I hope she will travel to Boulder, CO so I can hear her again in person."

Great music

"Wendy's music and talent always stir up a lot of emotion for me. Look for a re-release of Rage in the Ring from her soon. I'm one of her loyal followers here in Atlanta and want to tell you all if you listen to anything of hers and like it, you'll like all of it."
