Janis Ian - Folk Is the New Black

Music for people who love music

If you have a collection that includes more than 3 albums by any artist, then i have an album that is not to be missed by ANYONE. The album "Folk Is The New Black" the artist Janis Ian. Ms. Ian has been around the music block for the last 40 + years and has used every one of those years to perfect her craft...as a Fan, i say here craft was perfect 40 years ago...as someone looking at this album as something new and fresh i say, it will catch you off guard, tapping your foot, going back and listening again to that guitar part you were sure you could believe. Janis Ian has always been an artist who makes people think and feel deeply, on this album she includes making you laugh...but most of all, she makes you want more. January 25, 2008

Great to deal with

Wonderful product, well packaged, as described and delivered as it should be. What can I say? That is the way it is supposed to work. Great job. Great CD. July 21, 2007

Good Album

Janis never disappoints. Although this might not be her best effort, it is very pleasing. Her songwriting has always been her strength and this remains true with this record. Longtime fans will not be disappointed. July 11, 2006

All of the above

Have to agree with all the positive reviews about this one... All Those Promises is my favorite track, and the one that reminds me most of Janis' early work... At Seventeen was the song I always hoped would come on my bike radio in the 9th grade when riding through Hein Park with my girlfriend, Kathy McKinley... it did, it was magic, and I've been a fan ever since. Go on and buy this one... you'll love it. June 28, 2006
