More info: "The incredible songwriting abilities and voice of Helene can cut through any darkened moods or sadness." - Inside World Music "Blum doesn’t have as much in the way of recording behind her, just the stellar Karen & Helene disc and a CD of Christmas music, so this also effectively stands as her real debut. Blessed with a gorgeous voice, she’s put together a disc of wonderful material (co-produced with Harald Haugaard, who’s also a featured musician, along with a number of names from his own disc, as well as the ubiquitous Andy Cutting). There are several standouts, notably I Danmark Er Jeg Født, lyrics by H. C. Andersen, where moody, hanging electric guitar notes conjure up images of John Martyn’s One World, and the voice hangs like stars in a night sky, or the delight of Kongebørn or Om Kvælden, where dobro and horns mix to glorious effect. The constant star of the show, though, is Blum’s voice, by turns delicate and strong, and conveying powerful emotions with an ease that belies her age." - Chris Nickson, fROOTS

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
