Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0078221904926 Format: Live Label: Arista Manufacturer: Arista MPN: 19049 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Arista Release Date: June 15, 1999 Studio: Arista Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential recording: Grafted from McLachlan's supremely satisfying 1998 performances, Mirrorball is drawn almost equally from the multiplatinum Surfacing and its superior predecessor, Fumbling Towards Ecstasy. (Included also is the lovely, hard-to-come-by "I Will Remember You.") Live, a haunting ballad such as "Possession" becomes a fevered, aggressive bit of psychedelia. "Hold On" reveals new depths when performed behind the beat with morphing time signatures and driving piano. McLachlan's warmly expressive voice is still at the epicenter of her performances. She roams through these 14 songs with agile ease, riding the rails between singing for dramatic arena effect--huskily growling, airily trilling--and knowing what to play down with her sensually controlled crooning (witness such gems as Fumbling's title song and "Good Enough"). Overall, McLachlan's vocals match the heavily percussive intensity of her band and the build of her backing vocalists, producing a more spacious sound than the precise pitch rendered on her studio recordings. --Paige La Grone Average Rating:
 Rating:  - My first Sarah MacLachlan CDI remember the sound almost a decade ago. The beauty of her voice, her heart-wrenching lyrics. She was the diva at the turn of the century! She is still the model for pop/rock/folk singer-songwriters today. This album is simply stunning. Rating: - Fantastic and BeautifulI could never consider ANYONE who gave this CD less than four stars and a music lover. My musical taste is rather eclectic and includes everything from opera, new age and Celtic to acid rock (except for rap, some cry-in-your-beer country and hip-hop). This CD is a gem to be prized in any collection. Sarah McLachlan has a fantastic voice and the music to accentuate her talents. Rating: - If you like Sarah you will love this albumThis is one of my favorite albums to listen to. Many beautiful songs with the poetic lyrics we have come to expect from MchLachlin. Another CD to check out is Afterglow. Not as well-known or as many hits off of it but a terrific listen. Sarah has one of the most beautiful, soulful voices of today. Rating: - Opened up a whole new worldI had known of Sarah McLachlan but never took any notice of her until a friend's funeral in which 'Angel'(studio version) was played. The next day I sought out McLachlan's CDs and luckily came across 'Mirrorball', discounted to $9.99 at JB Hi-Fi(Australian equivalent of Best Buy). What stood out immediately was the superb production. Every instrument came through with clarity and (pardon the inarticulateness)'oomph!' I found myself listening to music that I'd never thought ...

Thank you for everything. Have a Happy New Year. Karen Heebner |
