About Living Planet :
"...Magpie's finest work to date...filled with a spirit of transcendence that permeates even the most anguished prophetic cries."
- Paul Seaman, Sojourners
"...The arrangements and vocal performances are absolute perfection, if there is such a thing."
- Evan Pritchard, Resonance Magazine
"...among the finest contemporary folk albums you'll find anywhere...The harmonies are exquisite... I love this music, It is the kind that has always touched me deeply. For anyone out there who feels that meaningful songs aren't what they used to be, check this out."
- Daniel Rose-Redwood, Pathways
"This month's best release comes from Magpie, whose Living Planet (*****) raises ecological consciousness and puts its money where its mouth is: all royalty proceeds go to environmental action groups...Greg Artzner's guitar matures with every release and Terry Leonino is one of the strongest harmony singers around. Together, they are one of folk music's treasures."
- Rob Weir, The Valley Advocate
About If It Ain't Love :
"This is the best album I've heard in the last five years! Magpie has always been a thoroughly enjoyable duo, but in this album they have really hit an artistic high point."
- Art Thieme, Come For to Sing
"...an impeccable showcase for the group's virtuosity. Terry Leonino's soprano– sometimes gutsy, sometimes delicate, but always very verstile–sounds better than ever. Her mandolin, harmonica, and dulcimer playing are nothing short of miraculous. Greg Artzner provides strong, sensitive guitar accompaniments and vocals."
- Liz Milner, Duckberg Times
"These folks are flat out good. Magpie moves as easily from a lament for Archbishop Romero to Fats Waller as a hot knife through soft butter. Whether performing a swing standard or an angry denunciation of corporate greed, Magpie makes us hear both the music and the lyric..."
- Rob Weir, New Haven Advocate
"Their two part harmony is a delight, and Terry Leonino is one of the finest female harmonica players around."
- Michael Horyczun, Stamford Advocate
