Dang, this poll is nearing 2 years old and I'm the first one to vote?
Anywho this was the first I'd heard of her and I just picked up this disc.
Very Melissa Etheridge sounding to me in voice and style.
Sound quality on the on this disc, specially on the vocals, is quite good, but the surround mix is very lacking for any action in the rear channels.
In all I'll be generous and give it an 8
Try it, you might really like it.

I can beat you on this. I have this disc it's never been opened or listened to and I got it more than a few years ago l. It's sitting with other unopened DVDAs. Oh well...
Thanks for the review guess no need to hurry and listen to it now.

Humm, did my post sound that negative?
With all the garbage music in this world I believe a 8 to be a quite strong rating?
YMMV

Yes an 8 is worthy I just focused on the very lacking surround sound description.
If she has a good voice and it's recorded well it's worth a listen

Yea, well not a lot you can do with one girl playing piano.
On the last track (Homecoming) there is a good part of a steam engine crossing the soundstage.

I just received this from band member Benj in LBC. See this thread Larisa Stow - Moment By Moment DVD-A discs NEW Sealed from Band Member! For $0.00 - Just Pay Shipping. Get your copy while you can.

I have the DTS CD of this as well. I don't know if there is a poll for that one but I rated it 4 out of 5 in Discogs. But the DVD-Audio disc deserves an even better rating. Removing the shrink and opening the Super Jewel Box made me a bit nostalgic for the DVD-Audio format. On screen lyrics was a great use of the video. The DVD music video was excellent as well.

This would classify as "Christian Rock" reminding me a lot of Jennifer Knapp. Very similar vocal style to Sarah McLachlan.
Very fine mix indead, enough surround effects to keep it interesting. So my vote a ten!

I voted 9, a good album with a great mix, I describe her as a non-angry Alanis Morrisette
