Astounding. " It was one of those CDs I've been meaning to get around to; now I have, and I'm glad I did. I came late to this dance, not long before the 10th anniversary of the release of "Stranger's World. Every song on this album is enlightening and enjoyable; "Open Arms (Don't Explain)" along with "Me and That Train" are incomparable. Intelligent songwriting, outstanding performance Not only is she an incredible live performer, but her artistry continues to improve with every CD release. Patty Larkin is an inspiring musician. Larkin is not your typical run-of-the-mill coffeehouse chanteuse with a guitar. She is an astonishing singer/songwriter/guitarist, energetic and eclectic in her rhythms and moods. Her musical explorations spin around the world, and she continues to create vibrant, intriguing songs. Also check out her latest release "Regrooving the Dream". Patty Larkin is a satifying listen, kind of like finally finding a really good, smart novel. She is a rarity, very cool and hard to come by.

Superb It features some of her best songwriting, and while these songs are arranged and produced in a manner that might seem a bit odd at first to longtime fans used to her more basic material, it also expands Larkin's horizons to the point of confirming that she is one of the most important talents in the singer/sonwriter genre. "Stranger's World" is a solid album that ranks among Patty Larkin's very best. Patty's best! Song's like "Open Arms," "Carolina" and most of all the excellent "Me And That Train" open up a world of exciting new possibilities for the first rate singer/songwriter - possibilities continued on the excellent follow-up "Perishable Fruit. For me, this is Patty Larkin's' highpoint - a flawless album superbly written, fabulously sung, and extraordinarily well played. ".
