Nanci Griffith Album: “Wings to Fly and a Place to Be: An Introduction”

...I have some of her later albums, but only the live album from which a couple of tracks are extracted.

Of course, I had heard of Nanci some time ago, but only heard her on a Frances Black album, which featured a numbder of Nanci songs.

Unlike other reviewers, I found this to be a helpful album to buy. It proves to me that Nanci was great from the start. Every song has that touch of class which shows she reaches a consistently high standard. I will now have to buy the three studio albums featured on this compilation.

I'm fast running out of money, thanks to Nanci - so my Christmas list is chock full of wanted albums by her.

Sure the selection is based on tracks that have been compiled before, but it's not designed for Nanci's fans who've got most of her albums. As a Nanci fan I'd much rather see this sort of compilation than yet another greatest hits which has one or (if you're lucky)two new songs on it. Save the new songs for the new albums

I was disapointed after going through this CD and 20th Century Masters. I have always found Nancy's music to be very humorous, uplifting and honest. That the same tittle songs, should remain on one cut after another is extremely disheartening. If I could find the CD of Nancy's, with music that hasn't already won my loyalty.....I'ld buy it. When reviewing this and a couple other cuts. I was hoping to find something new and enlightening. I guess I am left waiting. However, I haven't given up, Nancy is that good! I hope this review inspires here to continue her work. For the time being, I will keep watching and waitng.
