Album Notes This is an enhanced audio CD which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Personnel: Sarah McLachlan (vocals, guitar, piano); Sean Ashby, David Sinclair (vocals, guitar); Vince Jones (vocals, keyboards); Ashwin Sood (vocals, drums, percussion); Brian Minato (bass). MIRRORBALL was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Pop Album. "I Will Remember You" was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. "Possession" was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance. This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Though not marketed overtly as a live album, MIRRORBALL sports periodic crowd noises along with an astonishingly clean sound. It also explores aspects of the Sarah McLachlan phenomenon--the frank, confessional singer/songwriter style of music that has made her so popular and the excess of commercialism that irritates her detractors to no end. Regarding the latter, the disc contains a CD-ROM catalogue that contains order forms for everything from CDs and videos to temporary tattoos and gift certificates for Sarah merchandise, in addition to the usual web links. The performances on MIRRORBALL are dynamic and inspired, especially in the guitar work of David Sinclair and Sean Ashby. The percussion nicely anchors things, and McLachlan's voice soars over the proceedings. The track list includes fan favorites like the crossover hit "Building a Mystery," the Grammy-nominated "Aida," an insistent "Sweet Surrender" that exploits McLachlan's range to good effect, and the last track, a heartfelt version of the piano-driven "Angel," originally from the SURFACING album. MIRRORBALL, while unlikely to win her new fans, is a great document for McLachlan's legions of admirers.
