- Is This Necessary?
As a fan of Nanci Griffith for many years, I was delighted at the prospect of a new "Best of" CD. That is, until I saw that 15 of the 22 cuts on "From a Distance" were previously released together on an earlier compilation, "The MCA Years: A Retrospective," issued in 1993 and still readily available. Which begs the question: Why is this CD necessary? If the material itself is glorious, the marketing motivation for re-re-releasing it is much less so. I would encourage potential buyers of this to instead purchase the earlier compilation, which also includes the great songs "Deadwood South Dakota," "So Long Ago" and "Listen to the Radio," and also buy the live CD "One Fair Summer Evening." Then one would have truly the finest of Nanci Griffith's music from those MCA years. 11 personas de un total de 13 encontraron útil la siguiente opinión:
- A terrific, remastered version of an old favorite!
Yes, this collection is basically an updated, repackaged version of her early '90s "Retrospective," CD, but this collection has two things going for it over the previous "Best Of" release: it includes more songs, and the music has been digitally remastered. All the songs sound great and are indicative of Griffith's work during her brief stint at MCA Records. (One question: why was "Listen To the Radio" not included in this collection?)
This is a great CD to give to a friend who you want to introduce to Nanci Griffith and it is a great replacement disc for your old, worn-out "Retrospective" CD. After all, you cannot go wrong, this is Nanci Griffith, for Pete's sake!

I only recently discovered this amazing talent. The album is infectious. Simple yet eloquent work! - Nanci Groffith CD From a Distance.
Received this CD very quickly. Good condition.
Thank you,

- Why another compilation?
I give the album 5 stars because any of Nanci's songs are worth 5 stars and if you've never heard Nanci Griffith, this gives the new listener a taste of Nanci's extraordinary work. However, having been a fan since 1987, I have every album, every video and every compilation and cannot understand the need for another "compilation" - if this latest album becomes available on DVD that would definately stir up a new interest. |
