Product Description
From Amazon.com
Listeners familiar with Nicolette Larson's early work as a vocalist with Commander Cody will know right away that this project comes from her smoother-edged solo career. She scored big-easy rock hits, after all, a cynic might add, so it makes sense that her first release of the 1990s (nine years separate this recording and its predecessor, Say When) would be softened by keyboard washes and muted rhythms. But there's a simple reason for this CD's quietude, its floating gentleness: Larson writes in the liner notes that she wrote the songs as she sat by her daughter Elsie May's hospital bed as her daughter recovered. The music had to be all gentle and nonintrusive, and that's how it comes across. This is a great disc to spin as you rock the newborn. Larson's voice peeks out exceptionally as she covers an unreleased Neil Young tune ("Barefoot Floors") and presents a tender reading of "I Bid You Goodnight." Persistently fine layers of accordion and bowed cello give the keyboard-laden environments surprising warmth. --Andrew Bartlett

I've been buying it as gifts for years!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sleep Baby Sleep (Audio CD)
After three children I am still listening to this fantastic CD! My brother-in-law introduced it to me after hearing it in a store and we have been hooked ever since. Everybody I buy it for gets back to me and tells me how much they enjoy it. You can't help but relax when listening to it, and the words are so beautiful! Also, excellent vocals!

Still listening after six years,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sleep Baby Sleep (Audio CD)
As a baby, my daughter had a terrible time getting to sleep, so one day my husband went out and picked up this CD. My daughter is now almost seven years old, and we still play it for her at night. We've played it every single night (and while she was a baby, for at least one or two naptimes) for all these years, and not one of us is tired of it. I can't imagine that I'd even be able to stand hearing the same music so many times, but Larson's tunes are soothing and melodic. I'm going to be very sorry when my daughter no longer plays it to go to sleep (probably when she's 20). Buy it and enjoy.

Soothing and Touching,
By Valerie (Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sleep Baby Sleep (Audio CD)
My former boss gave me this CD at a baby shower when I was 8 months pregnant with my now 17 month old son. He admitted that he listens to it sometimes when he has trouble falling asleep. The songs are so touching and really convey what a new parent feels. Now, we listen to this CD every day at naptime and bedtime. It is an integral part of our daily routine. I still get teary eyed sometimes as I rock my baby to sleep, listening to the words of the songs, thinking about just how precious my little boy is to me!
