One of the best folk artists today.
Better With Time captures many different moods and memories. You'll feel swept by
the emotions, as well as harmonies, Alisa has brought to her songs.
From the perfect memory of a mother, or a love that has withered ,
to losing your idealism to this fast-paced world.
When
I play this for friends, they often compare her voice to contemporary
country artists, but she has a style all her own. One of the best
songs (One Lone Bird) is sung a cappella. It takes you on a journey. You can
actually feel the flight of the bird she is singing about by her
inflections and perfect rhythm.
If
you ever get the chance to see her perform live it's a real treat.
I
highly recommend this CD. It was, however, produced in small
release and is hard to find. I hope there will be a new release
soon.
Exceptional, intimate, easy to
get lost in.
Sounds and feels like the bar you
wish you went to when you broke up with your significant other. Not
sad exactly, just dusky rich and good. The kind of music in which
to get lost. Terrific writing, exceptional voice, low and soothing,
no high screeches here. More like brandy than a martini. Not a bad
cut on the disc. Label seems to have disappeared. It's been more
than a couple of years out (1995), I hope/wish she finds a label.
It would be a shame to not have more of this kind of music.
A Voice Like an Angel.
Singer-songwriter Alisa Fineman has
the voice of an angel. Reminiscent of Joni Mitchell, her voice,
words, and music evoke memories and emotion. I Could Not Ask
For More, Better With Time tell of hopeful
love.
Story Ring is of love gone by.
Mama's Hope
Chest is yesterday.
Home is today. Alisa is a treasure, and her music is all
that is beautiful in the world. Discover her.
