Notes & Reviews:

"...Most of the music is glorious. I'm a sucker for songs of the sea, and here are two intensely sad, gorgeously atmospheric chanteys: 'Stormy' and 'Shallow Brown'...Hickox is very, very good in this repertoire. It's pretty gooey stuff, yet each tug at the heart-strings is brought off with taste and style. Sentimental? Oh my, yes. But nothing is the least bit slushy...Texts and helpful notes are supplied." -Greenfield, ARG
