Music Review: His Best CD Yet
Rating: 5 Stars
This is truly a beautiful album and my favorite. Each time Garnet comes out with a CD he seems to top all the others. Oftentimes, musicians compromise their talents after a few successful albums. Garnet is not one of these. It's evident that he puts a lot of thought into each song - both words & musical composition. I was lucky enough to see him in concert last September when he sang most of the songs on this album. It was a nice surprise to see these songs as part of his new album (which he didn't mention). He's one of the most innovative musicians I've heard. His opening song, "Soul Kiss" ("as opposed to a French kiss," quoting Garnet at the concert) is really about finding your soul mate and sealing your love for each other with a "Soul Kiss". Most musicians have a characteristic style (which is not to say that's bad), but the only style Garnet has is that there is none. Each album/song has its own unique chacteristics. On this album, the opening song uses bongos (in reference to "chestnuts playing bongos on the roof of cars" from the opening line in "Soul Kiss".) His songs run the gamut of anger to tears to laughter (or anything in between) from one song to another. "So Happy" is a beautiful song about missing his good friend Archie Fisher after re-uniting for a tour with him in 2003. Most of his songs are not only poetic but also picturesque. This is most obvious on this album: "I watched the sun fall from the sky, It bathed the sea in amber glow . . . The sea shone gold like whiskey . . . A warm night in a whispering field, The stars were falling from the sky, . . . I watched the moon rise from the hills, The sea was moving fast and slow . . ." (from "Here Tonight"). Garnet has also produced (and accompanied) albums for friends of his: Doug McArthur, Archie Fisher, and Bobby Watt. You can find the album he did with Archie Fisher on Amazon.com under Archie Fisher. Doug McArthur's music you can find at http://www3.sympatico.ca/dougimac/DMWEB.html. Bobby Watt's music you can find at: www.bobbywatt.com.
