Glimmer

Q Magazine (12/99, p.144) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...a dramatic leap in a consciously upmarket direction....a beautifully realized soft-rock album of fine songs...crafted with a spare, conversational warmth..."
Mojo (10/99, p.101) - "...a quantum step up in every department. With fewer guitars and a fiercely burnished gloss, GLIMMER takes a little while to give up its treasures but when it does, you're there for the long haul....Converts will lap this up, doubters should prepare to be won over."
Entertainment Weekly (8/6/99, p.65) - "...[demonstrates] her knack for melancholy melodies and 'Love sucks but I'll survive' lyrics....Richey's winsome vocals and hard-earned life lessons prove that Lucinda Williams isn't the only local gal making country-pop with musical integrity." - Rating: B
