| I
just wanted to let you know how very much I love your new CD. I always
cry when I listen to it, and right now that's a good thing. Your music
touches me in a way I'm not used to and not entirely comfortable with,
yet. Thank you. |

side one, "the loud music". Sometimes we sing "Hold My Hand" together.
Thank you for touching our lives with your music. |

Traditional
folkies will love "The Leaves Entwine". Jennifer melds ballads and fiddle
music into a satisfying mix and does it with consummate artistry - a clear
result of her years of performing. But there's more. It's this "more" that
will engage listeners...and it's this "more" that has kept "The Leaves
Entwine" in my must play pile.

Across the Blue Mountains
(©1999)
My daughters Georgia
Rose and Suzannah Park
put out this recording to document the songs they sang together growing
up. They were 19 and 17 and knew they would soon be heading out into the
world on their own paths.
