"Childredn Running Through" is a beautiful album with subtle exquisite melodies and somber lyrics....It would even pass for a chamber-goth album if it weren't for Ms. Griffin's slight country twang. I listened to it lying down quietly, and there are so many things to absorb in the album. It needs maybe one or possibly two stronger songs, but that is just nit-picking. It is a lovely, beautiful record that would hold its own in anyone's CD or record collection.
Chris P. gave it a7:
Listening to this record reminded me of Neko Case's "Fox Confessor Brings the Flood". I felt both of the albums create a very private atmosphere, but Case for me captures it so gracefully. I still enjoy this album very much. First time listener.
Chris H. gave it a10:
This album means a lot to me - the first ten tracks are a revelation and the rest still ranks among the best songs I heard this year.
Chuck M. gave it a9:
Griffin's best synthesis so far of her varied talents. She still has a masterpiece in her, but this will do until the next one.
Harris S. gave it a10:
Best album of 2007 and Patty's best ever! Getting Ready just knocks my socks off.
Leslie S. gave it a1:
She is dreadful..saw her w John Prine last night..she screeched and was so horribly ill prepared as to both the one duet with Prine..too stoned to remember the words...real downer..what is he thinking? CD fair with superior production to compensate for a grating, nails on chalkboard voice...ugh.

Am I the only one who finds this album completely melody free?
