"Released" Review from Laurie Lawson of electroniclink.com
”If my car CD player could speak, it would be saying “Hallelujah!” For a decade I have been playing The Jenny Burton Experience. Five-hour rides to Maryland, short jaunts to Jersey, trips to the carwash – me and Jenny and the gang can be found singing. Well, we are still going to be harmonizing but I have a whole bunch of new songs to learn. RELEASED is Jenny Burton’s newest musical venture, and it adds up to all expectations of this versatile and compelling singer. And the icing on this melodious cake would be that all music and lyrics are by the masterful Peter Link.
Compiled of songs sung throughout her career but never released, as usual Burton and Link take you through the gamut of emotions. You’ll be dancing in your seat with the rollicking “Just Like Katherine Hepburn,” shouting “Amen” at “You Knock Me Off My Feet,” wiping away tears through the haunting “So It Begins,” and looking for a country that needs an anthem with “Time And Time Again.” The bonus song (there’s always one that totally defies explanation) is “South Africa,” an exquisite blend of rhythms, chants, and the multi-octave expression of Burton. Rich of voice, spirit, and emotion, a Jenny Burton album is a holy experience. So powerful it was ready to explode, thank heavens this one was RELEASED.
