"Ah, the sixties! For many of the Baby Boomer Generation, that is considered the golden era of music, television, movies and cars. One thing that we began to witness in those years was music busting out beyond the radio and jukebox and began merging with TV and movies to sell stars, cars and soda pop. This was a wonderful, beautiful, creative perfect storm that captivated the attention of millions and turned stars and starlets into icons whose images are forever etched in our brains."

“Love It Away” Album Review
"Love It Away" Album Cover
“Donna Loren is alive and well and back in the studio again. Last year she returned with her first album of newly recorded material in decades. Love It Away combined eight original compositions with seven cover songs. The production is crisp and her vocals remain clear and strong as she has what best can be described as a pure pop voice. The packaging contains the lyrics to the songs which is always appreciated, plus there are some nice pictures included as well. Love It Away is a nice comeback album for Donna Loren. Hopefully there will be more to come.”       -David Bowling, April 18, 2011
