Industry Reviews
3 Stars - Good - ...a reverential nod to old friends....for songwriters like Griffith and her cronies, the lyric is still as mighty as the groove or the guitar riff...
Rolling Stone (04/13/1993)
Highly Recommended - ...Griffith and her guests breathe new life into most of the material...OTHER VOICES is less a folk-song primer than a collection of tunes picked for their musical and lyrical strengths, recorded in such a way as to recapture their innocence...
Spin (03/01/1993)
7 - Very Good - ...as an interpretive artist, Griffith brings alive the characters in every song much in the same way as her hero Woody Guthrie....one of this generation's most important and talented voices...
NME (03/20/1993)
