Press Reviews

...A classic for today and any other day... CMJ (8/4/01, p.4)

4 stars out of 5 - "...Stripped-down, honest and raw....It's another understated gem, full of old-fashioned waltzes slowed down to a heartbeat and mournful back-porch ballads of home-spun wisdom... Uncut (11/01, p.124)

    Comments about ACONY RECORDS Gillian Welch - Time (The Revelator):

    I listen to this album when I am driving around, and when I am up late at night enjoying the company of my spouse. It's very relaxing, soothing, uplifting and romantic. My little boy also really enjoys listening to it in the car, some songs are very catching and we find that we hum the songs for days after listening to it. It's very easy listening, most people will respond positively to the vocal harmony's and the guitar. It seems to stir nostalgia of country living and past loves and friendships.
