She is creative, emotional and sensual. Her songwriting, too.
author: Bob Creem
This CD contains a good mix of bepop and sultry jazz. The artist's shifts and pauses add excitement to standards. Her own compositions are an excellent addition to her performance; also, her songwriting deserves credit as an avenue she should pursue, even seperately from singing.

Ms. Egert's voice is sensual and instinctively understands jazz
author: S. L. Minken
When I first heard Ms. Egert's live performance at Shanghai Jazz, I just knew I had to have her CD, Let's Get Lost. Her voice is a unique blend of Billie Holliday, Barbra Streisand, and Nora Jones, that captivates the listener. Ms. Egert's original song, WAIT UNTIL I'M THROUGH WITH YOU, is refreshingly whimsical. Her jazz standards are anything but "standard" as Ms. Egert's sensual and finely-tuned voice instinctively understands jazz. When Ms. Egert's sings Ellington's I'M CHECKING OUT GOOM-BYE and DAYDREAM, her voice flows from the heart with passion. If you're in the mood for love, you're in the mood for Karen Egert. Let's Get Lost is a "must have" in your CD jazz collection.
