"Donna Klein offers up a tour de force of songwriting talent which is translated to the listener in an ear-pleasing style which can only be described as Dynamic Folk.

"Remnants of sixties rock, backstreet blues, and speakeasy torch songs all find their way into this savory mixture ... and it is impossible to imagine a better vehicle for them than Ms. Klein's impelling voice. "There is More to Love Than Words" is Fantastic!

"New York City is pure listening enjoyment from beginning to end!"

--- Barry Shell - Curator
The Treecastle Music Gallery, Clayton, GA, USA

"... It's more hip than easy listening, and more listenable than hard rock, inviting the audience to come back for more ... a crystal clear, supple voice and a strong acoustic guitar style ... forms the backbone of this album.

"... 'There is More to Love Than Words' ... romantic and melodic energy, while the acoustic guitar gives the song a solid underpinning.

"'A Midsummer Night's Dream' ... comes out and grabs the listener with its energetic and percussive rhythms ... a great dance tune, with its clever combination of a driving beat and sophisticated orchestration...  

"'Today, Tomorrow and Forever' ... beguiles the listener with a jazzy duet between guitar and voice. The lyrics are smart and snappy, the vocal strong yet playful, ... skillfully rendered guitar leads left me wanting an encore. 
 

Overall - "In this age of indecipherable lyrics and ear-shattering volume, Klein's music is an oasis of civilization that hasn't forgotten its folk roots."
