"During the folk boom of the early 60s, Bonnie Dobson was spoken of alongside Joan Baez, Judy Collins and Carolyn Hester - prime female movers of the Greenwich Village scene. On the evidence of this, her 1960 debut album, such praise was more than justified".

"Bonnie breathes life, meaning, emotion and sometimes, beauty into the fourteen traditional folk songs. Her voice veers between heartfelt to heartbroken, right through melancholy and wistful. She shares the hurt, hope, sadness and suffering she's singing about. It's as if Bonnie takes the lyrics personally. This results in what can only be described as a series of soul-baring songs. They became Bonnie Dobson-She's Like A Swallow, and introduced Bonnie Dobson to music lovers worldwide".
