If one wanted a prime example of the hyper-fickle nature of the modern recording industry, the checkered history of New York City's Spin Doctors would be hard to ignore. Launching the 1990s with a pair of the decade's most enduring modern-rock hits, "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong" and "Two Princes" (and strong contenders such as "Jimmy Olsen's Blues"), the band's energetically rhythmic workouts (fronted by vocalist Chris Barron's ever-sunny demeanor) also helped spawn the whole "jam band" movement, replete with its own package tours--but don't hold that against them. Yet many critics assailed their supposedly retro roots, and the business may have had unrealistic expectations based on their early hits. By '96, their label had shown them the door; that "pocket full of kryptonite" proved to have had a surprisingly short half-life. Here then is a concise first chapter of their history, drawing five tracks each from You've Got to Believe in Something, Turn It Upside Down, and Pocket Full of Kryptonite, plus a cut from the live collection Homebelly Groove. Also included is a previously unreleased tribute to longtime booster and fan Howard Stern, the loopy, tongue-in-cheek "Miss America." --Jerry McCulleyCustomer Reviews:
Good but a few duds.......2005-09-27
Decent But Better Off Getting The Original CD's.......2005-08-01
Also the second CD has some good songs like More Than Meets The Ear and Beasts In The Woods that are not on this collection. There is a hidden track cover version of That's The Way I LIke It(on another CD0 that is notably missing.
So my opinion would be to get Pocket Full of Kryptonite and possibly the second CD as opposed to this non-all inclusive compilation.

Album Description
Have you ever had the experience where uncanny events just happen, as if some other force were choreographing them? If you know what I'm talking about, then you can relate to the title track "Everchanging Tides" from Kristine Robin's new release.Throughout the album, vivid pictures depicted through haunting harmonies take you on a journey through Robin's life. A life influenced by early teen years spent in a Scottish fishing village, the Appalachian Mountains, and then later in Native American ceremonies conducted by her adopted Arapaho dad.
An eclectic array of musical influences, from the lush harmonies of Celtic ballads to the emotional appeals of Sarah McLaughlin, have built Robin's style of thought provoking, moody, and melodic tunes and lyrics. Although Robin exudes a magical sense of nature and spirit, it's not just about elusive concepts. It's the everyday nitty-gritty-relationship-integrity struggles we all deal with. Like an unrequited love lost in the "Winds of Time," we can yearn to go back, but in the end we must reconcile ourselves to the life we have chosen.
Robin has skillfully blended the modern trends with her Celtic, Appalachian, and Native American influences to create a soothing but progressive sound laced with folkish overtones. "I want to help connect people to a place of reverence in their everyday lives." These words become three dimensional when you listen to the song track "A-Hay, A-Ho," which takes the stories she learned in the tipi, sets them into a lush Appalachian style tune, then wraps them up in a contemporary arrangement.
When you set all esoteric concepts aside, Kristine Robin's album is there for you to sit back and allow the melodic chords and harmonies to lull you into another realm. Are you listening Can you feel the Gaelic breezes, the Arapaho fire, the emotional waves as they ripple across your fingertips?
Go ahead try.

Alchemy.......2005-10-15
"The Quiet Lands of Erin," one of my favorite tracks, is haunting and evocative. I have a lovely version on an old LP, but I prefer Kristine's new rendition. The simple sounds of water, birds, and the laughter of children set the scene of a pristine, isolated, rocky shore imprinted deep in the memory, and a love of place as romantic as any human love. The mournful harmonies of Kristine's voice and gentle, unobtrusive instrumentals fuse perfectly with the melancholy longing of the words.
In "One Is the Sun," the exotic drone of a didgeridoo quickly pulls you into a sort of child's rhyme/environmental prayer, combining the reassuring simplicity and soothing tunes of lullaby with all-too-observant words warning of the danger of our present path, as "two-hearted people," and a heartfelt Cheyenne prayer from Kristine's adoptive grandfather adding spiritual resonance.
"Winds of Time," my other favorite track, for me paints a strong, poignant picture, half imagination, half memory. The subtle percussion seems to echo raindrops on the window pane or crackling fire in the room behind, pressing one's face against the cool glass pane, looking out into a dim present scene and still seeing and feeling the emotion for a love from the past. Here again, a synthesis of mood, melody, instrumentation, and the meaning of the words show a true artist at work--one whose future creations I look forward to.
Reading some of these reviews reminds me once again of how subjective taste is, especially in the aesthetic area, and what it is I think a review should hopefully accomplish--point out the strengths and weaknesses of a work for the benefit of artist, but more particularly, for the audience. I.e., it is all very well to express one's love or hate for something, but more useful to help others figure out whether they will love or hate it.
The dislike of reviewers who criticize this lovely CD for being what it is, rather than something else, seems rather pointless to me, but I do agree with one thing: The best way to know if you will enjoy Kristine's music is to listen to the available audio samples before buying. In fact, I rarely buy a CD anymore if audio samples are not available. On Amazon, you can get free downloads of three of the songs that are fairly representative of the different types of music on this album--an original, contemporary piece (By Your Side), a Celtic piece (Quiet Lands of Erin), and an original, Native American-themed piece (Sacred Night). However, in my opinion, Sacred Night is not the strongest such piece on the album; the lyrics are not as interesting as in other original songs. I prefer One is the Sun (see detailed comments above) and the title piece, Everchanging Tides. Samples of more of the songs are also available at the CD Baby website, including those two, as well as Seacht n'Dolas na Maighdine Muire (The Seven Sorrows of Mary), one of the traditional Celtic songs sung in Gaelic. There is also more information available at the artist's website (which I accessed directly via CD Baby), including a link to a new online video to the song One is the Sun, which I also really enjoyed.

Enjoy the CD thoroughly.......2005-05-04
The CD is a mix of her influences: Native American inspired (Tracks- 1, 2, 5, & 12), Celtic (her overall vocals and there are 3 traditional pieces - tracks 3, 7, & 10), Appalachian (she uses a mountain dulcimer and the last song is arranged Appalachian style), and her own contemporary writing and compositions (All the tracks but 3, 7, & 10). The songs flow through the different styles or influences very nicely.
The CD booklet is a whole other world to explore, with images and stories to support the songs. It turns out the album is a personal look into some fascinating experiences the artist has had, which she shares with us. This is the case with the title track "Everchanging Tides." Here, the verses are actually different experiences she has had where simple events became poignant because of the amazing timing and interaction between people and the natural world. I got the chills after reading the story in the booklet and listening to it again.
After listening to the CD a few times, the words and melodies played over again and again in my head. I found the harmonies and voices haunting and captivating. The instrumentation throughout feels just right, whether it is her Appalachian lap dulcimer creating a magical undercurrent, her penny whistle creating soaring sensations, or the viola's rich voice speaking to us. I can really see the inspiration for the sense of moodiness she creates in "The Quiet Lands of Erin," having myself spent time in Scotland near where she lived. The whole CD creates a wonderful progression which I have listened to on headphones, enjoyed as background music during a small get together of friends, and even heard played over a PA at a business expo (strange but true.)
The overall feeling is gentle and moving. The songwriting is quite nice. The effect is a very healing one.
Just so you know, I am one of those people who love to listen to the words. Oh, by the way, I also got the lyrics through the music page on the artists website.
I enjoy the CD thoroughly.

Bobby Moore, a soulful giant and a true gentleman..........2006-02-20
His passing in February, 2006 is a great loss to the music world and he will be missed, but his music lives on. "The Hamburger Song" is a very early form of rap (although that's not what we called it when we performed it live back then). It was just a fun, different kind of song which was a big favorite and always got requested whenever I played with the band or enjoyed them as a member of the audience. "Searching For My Love" sounds as good today as it did the first time I heard it. God speed, Bobby Moore. Thanks for the music you gave us.
