GARY BARLOW +HARRY CONNICK JNR NEW ALBUMS ON COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW. DECEMBER 3RD.

GARY BARLOW....NEW ALBUM.
Tracks played....Let me go / Small town girls / 6th Avenue.

Unusual and interesting. Some religious themes,some sad songs,and some
commercial pop. the songs grow on you the more you listen and this album
is the best he has ever made solo. I like it. Finding out that he has now written
all the songs for a new American Musical I feel Mr Barlow's talent is going
to soar. ****.

HARRY CONNICK JNR....CHRISTMAS ALBUM  WHAT A NIGHT. SONY (released last
year.
Tracks played....It's the most wonderful time of the year / What a night / Dancer of
the sugarplum fairy / It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.

Very Jazzy album that would not please all his fans. He produced, orchestrated and
sings on the album that I found unusual and ,in my opinion , a little misguided for a
festive album. The orchestrations were strangely jazz orientated which doesn't seem to
work with Christmas carols. ....however there are some good moments on the album.***.
