Red Bird Red Soars
12/21/2001
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is Debi's best album yet. It showcases beautifully her world-class, three octave voice, and her brilliant talent as a songwriter. A recent review of "Red Bird Red" in The Washington Post says, "her lovely voice has acquired a soulful edge... The songs Smith wrote with Tom Paxton will receive alot of deserved attention... impressive, touching and eloquent... but the same virtues are apparent when Smith is the sole composer crafting narrative ballads as memorable as 'Niagara Falls'... or newly minted, 'Chevy Impala,' a string band romp that takes advantage of a stellar cast of musicians..." Another review (The Journal) says, "A songwriter who's capable of writing truly timeless material... Smith's vocal prowess wows anyone who takes the time to listen..." Is this album a winner? Is a red bird red?"
Stellar Album
01/17/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Debi Smith's latest album is terrific. Her voice, her songwriting, even the cast of Nashville musicians is stellar. It is a great album to listen to while walking or exercising! The topics are uplifting and poignant, and the musical content is beautiful and rhythmic. Debi's closeness to her family comes through with songs like, "Niagara Falls." "Chevy Impala" and "If You Don't Listen" are catchy, uptempo, and fun. Puccini's "O Mio Babino Caro" at the close of the album is amazing! I have listened to this album many times; it's a real stunner."
Great album

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a great album. The Washington Post and The Journal rated it as one of the best albums of 2001. The songs Debi wrote with Tom Paxton, especially "Marry Me Again" (which I hear Tom Paxton is recording on his next album) are particularly poignant. It has terrific up tempo tunes, too, such as If You Don't Listen and Chevy Impala (which is a real hoot and a must listen for any and all car jockeys). This album is a real find and holds its own with Mary Chapin Carpenter and Kathy Mattea, to name a few."
