CD Reviews

Jan Garrett's New CD is wonderful!

Susan Garsoe | Colorado Springs, CO | 01/15/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"First of all, Jan has the most incredible voice. It's sultry and husky and clean and clear. She sings from the heart. Her songs are personal, and like such songs, speak to all of us. I like to think about her grandmother's house, I cry when she sings of letting her mother go, and I love the jazzy "I Feel Like I Want to go Home." I have been a fan for years, following her gigs all over Colorado, and I think that she should be famous and rich!"

Touching, uplifting , soothing, sometimes haunting music

"Somewhere between Joni Mitchell, Nelly Furtado, Enya, Celine Dion and Judy Collins, you'll find Jan Garrett. Gently, passionately, from the heart she touches places and visions it feels good to go to, or with.There's something about her music which reminds me of the best songs Disney has matched up with it's best animations- from Pocahontas (Listen With Your Heart, Colors of the Wind,) to Little Mermaid (part of your world), and Beauty and The Beast (title song.) No, I'm not a kid. I am 50 years old. Jan's songs are not created for children (well they are fine for kids, but they are created mostly for adults. I just feel that she could do a soundtrack for a Disney film and it would have a total Disney feel. She is a total pro and the songs are great. The two Jan Garrett CDs I own have seen far more than the average number of plays in our house and car."
