Already an All-Time Favorite

"A fan since I heard her sing on "Felicity," this album did not disappoint in any way (except that there are some other songs I've heard her sing live that I wish were here -- but hopefully she'll release them later).It's a perfect representation of a tremendously talented young woman. She's so amazing to see and hear live, and this album gives us fans a chance to take in every lyric and note. There's a new and wonderful discovery with each listen. Her lovely voice & sweet vulnerability blend with a rocking edginess that makes this such a fun album. It's also insightful and enlightened. It's one of those discs that you always leave in the car because at a moment's notice, you can pop it in & immediately feel better. I easily give it my highest level of endorsement."

Amy Jo Johnson's Personal and Eclectic Debut

"I admit that I was a fan of Amy Jo Johnson way back when she was on the Power Rangers. I was young and could have never imagined that almost 10 years later, I would be listening to her CD. I also watched her on Felicity and became very interested in her music when I found out that she is a songwriter. Finally, about a month ago, I decided to look her up online to see if she had made any albums. When I found out that The Trans-American Treatment had been released last year, I went straight to the store to buy it. Much to my dismay, they told me that it's only available online. So I ordered it and two days later, I received it in the mail. My first impression was that all of the songs are obviously very personal. I also liked that not all of the songs were the same. From the storylike "Crazier Than You" to the rocking "Purple Skies", the CD has a little bit of something for everyone. For anyone who is a fan of women singer-songwriters, this CD is definitely one to add to your collection. Amy Jo wrote every song on the CD, which makes it feel even more emotional. I highly recommend this CD because it not only makes you think, but it can make you cry, make you sing, and most importantly, it can inspire you."

Small town girl has big time talent

"Amy Jo Johnson cut her musical teeth in the LA club scene with the band Vahala. Then she brought to life the rise and fall of 60's singer Nansi Nevins in VH1's first movie "Sweetwater". Now Amy Jo steps out with her own songs, making her own kind of music her own special way and it rocks! With hauntingly soul searching lyrics weaving in and out with rocky/alternative guitar, bass and drums, the CD comes alive with all the intimacy and in your face soulfulness of a private concert. Amy Jo's richly sensitive voice coos with tenderness in songs like Splashin Rain and Goodbye, only to reach down inside you and shake your bones in Fairway and Panic. I found the CD thoroughly enjoyable and the more I listen to it, the more I like it!"
