Review of the Jewel CD Spirit
Spirit is the latest release from Pop Sensation Jewel, and is another winner from this talented musician.
Unfortunately, it’s not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Spirit. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
One of the nicer things about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Pop isn’t your favorite genre you still can’t help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.
Listen to and I think you’ll agree that the song choices are excellent, the production is outstanding and Jewel is clearly in top form.
While this entire album is really very good some of my favorites are track 2 - What's Simple Is True, track 9 - Enter From The East, and gt3
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Deep Water. It’s a great track!
