"...Barbara Manning simply writes amazing pop songs. Any critical acclaim—from her early years as vocalist and bassist for Chico indie band 28th Day, through her solo albums and rock bands like S.F. Seals, World of Pooh and The Go-Luckys!—is deserved. She’s never had tremendous range, but her voice is pure, strong and comforting. Sometimes it sounds like she’s singing to you in conversation, her voice floats and her words slip into these sort of poetic stanzas."
Mark Lore at the music blog The Days of Lore has a beautiful write up on Barbara today. I don't think anyone has summed up Barbara's career in a nicer, more succinct way. Thanks Mark!
