A Woman's Gotta Do Her Thing
As one of the founding and still touring members of that Fabulous Female Folkestra, THE FOUR BITCHIN' BABES, Sally's 5th solo Cd on the Shanachie label, show's why she's ..."One of the best lyricists on the singer/songwriter circuit" THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE "A wrenchingly vivid knack for contemporary ballads" THE BOSTON GLOBE "What is Sally Fingerett about? Intelligent, lyrical songs, nimble fingered guitar and piano stylings and a lilting voice that skips down the path of lovely melodies. Fingerett is surely one artist we'll be hearing more about in the coming years." THE PERFORMING SONGWRITER MAGAZINE "Sally Fingerett sings with one of those voices that wraps itself around you like warm fur." SING OUT MAGAZINE "Best Of Collection." This CD contains fan favorites, bonus cuts of never before stuff, and live official bootlegs. This CD is the Sally Fan Must Have. A QUOTE: "Your album is GREAT, so inspiring Your timing on IT'S BEEN SAID is do dead-on it's a master class in delivering a song with a great melody, a story to tell, all the while holding up a mirror for the audience to hear their own lives sung. How lucky a tape recorder was running."
