5.0 out of 5 stars Talent deserving of wider recognition, November 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Jonatha Brooke Live (Audio CD)

I have been mesmerized by the beauty, clarity and perfection of Jonatha Brooke's voice for many years. "Live" is like having a command performance in your living room. The quality of the recording is excellent. Great performances by her band--especially like the sound of the fretless bass (Marcus Miller) on "Because I Told You So". Why Jonatha isn't as well known as Jewel or Sarah McLachlan is beyond me.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of My Favorite CDs of All Time, April 12, 2001

This review is from: Jonatha Brooke Live (Audio CD)

It's hard to put into words how I feel about this CD. The contents are not simply music and lyrics, but a skillfully crafted collection of years of emotions that even rival the song-writing finesse of Neil Finn. Jonatha IS a storyteller, painting an incredible portrait of some of the sweetest sounds you will ever hear. "Is This All" is simply stunning. You experience for a few minutes the pain that is felt from a relationship gone wrong. "Because I Told You So" is another classic. The soaring harmonies during the bridge still send shivers up my spine. Incredibly moving. Amazing. Beautiful.

Jonatha possess the gift of an angelic voice, an accomplished guitarist, and an inspiring composer. She's a true artist.

"Jonatha Brooke Live" is one of my top 10 favorites. It's a must for your CD collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars TERRIFIC TALENT!, November 23, 1999

This is a work of art from a true artist in the purest sense! Jonatha's music has that special ability to evoke an emotional response from her audience. This is that special quality that can only come from listening to truly superb music! The range of vocal colors that Jonatha uses to 'paint' her audio pictures coupled with sheer poetry for lyrics makes her live performances even more dynamic than her studio work. Even though the songs are the same, they are enjoyable on a whole new level. She is truly a Terrifc Talent!
