CD Reviews

Jude Johnstone, Coming of Age
dremweavr1 | Milford, Delaware United States | 08/02/2002

"This was a new artist for me. I found her music beautiful and haunting. She sang of pain, love lost and healing. I just love this CD and can't wait for her next one. What a creative artist."
An extraordinary talent
John T. Kretchmer | Sherman Oaks, CA USA | 04/29/2003

"I first became aware of "Coming of Age" after an interview with Jude Johnstone on National Public Radio. I haven't reacted so
positively to a recording I first heard on the radio since hearing Luciano Pavarotti in "The Daughter of the Regiment" in 1971. I purchased the album and was amazed and overwhelmed by the artistry displayed. "Wounded Heart," and, especially, "The Nightingale" are extraordinary works, both in their creation and execution. I have yet to tire of listening to them, and continue to play them for with everyone whose tastes I respect--and even for those whose tastes I don't respect. The last singer/songwriter that had such a profound affect on me was Randy Newman, when I first heard "Good Old Boys." My enjoyment of his music has continued for over 30 years. I hope that Ms. Johnstone, too, will continue to record her material,
so that I may continue to purchase it and enjoy it for many, many years. With "Coming of Age," Jude Johnstone has created an extraordinay work of art."
When will she record again?

"Over the last year, this is the CD that I consistently keep putting in my car stereo to listen to over and over. "Wounded Heart" and "Nightingale" certainly deserve the attention they have gotten by being covered by Bonnie Raitt and Jennifer Warnes, respectively, but attention should also be paid to the wonderful "Cry Wolf" that is great to sing along with, and the haunting "When Someone Speaks Your Name" that has one of the most original and beautiful melodies I have heard in a long time. Johnstone uses her unique voice to perfection, and each song is a treasure. When will she record again? I'm eager for more."
