Product Description: For anyone who suspects that record companies will soon be releasing Eva Cassidy's voice mail messages, it's extraordinarily pleasing to note that Imagine is more than just a bottom-of-the-barrel-scraping exercise. All of these tracks are previously unreleased and most are live recordings, but listeners who already own Live at Blues Alley know just how refreshing Cassidy's live performances were. Check out her take on Sandy Denny's "Who Knows Where the Time Goes?" to feel a shiver of delight at another effortlessly ideal cover, or listen to her laid-back "You've Changed" from the Blues Alley sessions to experience more of her soulful jazz. Elsewhere, the solo acoustic reading of Gordon Lightfoot's "Early Morning Rain" shows off her guitar skills, and if "Imagine" doesn't ever scale the heights of Songbird's "Over the Rainbow" it still demonstrates how she always had something new and uniquely compelling to say when performing a familiar standard. Studio recordings "Still Not Ready" and "I Can Only Be Me" are, oddly perhaps, the least successful cuts. Happily, the album concludes with another lovely solo standard, "Danny Boy." The recording quality varies noticeably from track to track, and there are a few awkward fade-outs--presumably to remove audience noise--but still the sparkling music comes across quite vividly. Imagine may not be the best way to discover Eva Cassidy for the first time, but established fans will warmly welcome this new collection. --Mark Walker

Customer Reviews
Tommy... thank-you for introducing me to Eva Cassidy
I will always remember and thank my beloved brother, Thomas John Greene, who introduced me to Eva Cassidy some years ago. This is a beautiful album of her music (they all are). How can I not think of you, Tom, as I listen to Imagine... God bless your sweet soul (and Eva's too). Miss you. Love, Eileen

Sweet Music
Eva is wonderful! Such a pleasure to listen to THAT voice. I love the way she does the old standards. "Danny Boy" will knock your socks off and bring a tear to your eye at the same time. If your an Eva fan as i am, this release will not dissapoint you. I love her and her voice quality is like no other i have ever heard. It does something to my insides that i can't explain. All I know is whenI listen to her I smile and she always makes me feel good. Outstanding!

What a voice will order everyone of her cd's. Too bad her life was cut short. Love, Love her music

What a Songbird!
Eva Cassidy had an amazing voice and style. It's a joy to hear her voice and so sad to know she died before claiming the fame that is rightfully hers.

Eva Cassidy Music
This is the second CD by Eva Cassidy and I hope to find everything she recorded. She left the world too soon but she left behind a beautiful voice.
