My Mom Loves It TOO!
author: lois pensak
I had to put in a schlocky title("my Mom loves it too")to describe my review : my heart jumps with enthusiasm in the same funny way when I listen to this thoroughly enjoyable CD....so much so that I gave it to my mother as a gift, and she does LOVE it. We recently would listen to her Rod Stewart "romance" CD's in her car when we would travel(she, myself, and Michael). Now, we listen to Jack's soothing, croony(only in a good way), spirited music, chuckle-to-tear lyrics, and memorable voice whenever we want a lift.

Spectacular!
author: Paul Monsour
So, it's winter break here at NYU, and I'm just tooling away at work, editing math articles and listening to music. And lately, that means listening to "Picture This." Quite simply, the album is spectacular. I knew I liked it from my first listen this summer, but two days ago when I listened---really listened---I really got into it in a way that I rarely do with music anymore (and often did back in the day . . . ). In particular, "Welcome to the Best Night" just drew me in: the lyrics, the singing, the arrangement, the musicianship. And then I heard song after song as if for the first time. I can only crow and praise and laud and clap my hands. My current faves are "Welcome" and "Our Love Is Beautiful" (one can only describe the latter as swinging"---there's no better word for it). And of course "You Took My Heart" is a masterpiece. Ah, to listen to music that is heartfelt, positive, inspired, and human after the past decade or so of regimented, corporate ear clutter!
