Excellent early Enya's work

When I saw this CD I just said "I have to have it". It certainly sounds like Enya's early work since it is soft and tender. Her voice doesn't reach the depth it does on the new songs but still is an excellent job. I would say it helps somehow to understand Enya's evolution through her music.

For those who must have everything by Enya

Even compared to her work on "The Celts," this is different. I found it hard to hear much of her style in this, and there's a goofy synth sound that should have stayed out of the songs. Overall, the vocal tracks are the best, the theme is nice, but gets slightly repetitive. A good disc, and a very interesting part of Enya's history. I recommend trying it before you buy it.

For those who really love Enya and her music

This, of course, doesn't come across as the Enya we know and love, but it is a beautifully done sound track. She only sings two songs (and it's a short--37 minutes--CD), but it definitely belongs in every true Enya fan's collection. Besides the 11 cuts that she composed, there are four pleasantly done jazz standards, and a song from Edith Piaf. By the way, those two songs are beautiful...not like her present work, but beautiful in their own right.
