Kylie Minogue "The Abbey Road Sessions" Album Review

So I received my copy of the new Kylie Minogue Album today and I got a chance to listen to it all day at work and it made a nice change to our drive home.  

The first thing you will notice about the album is the great cover art.  She looks like a timeless bombshell beauty.   She is absolutely gorgeous and I love the cover photo.  I read that she has 25 years in music and you would never know it by that picture. 

This CD has 16 songs and they all are very classically recorded so they sound really great,  They were recorded in the legendary London's Abbey Road Studios with a full orchestra.  You will not hear that pop sound you may be used to when you think of Kylie Minogue.  

How does it sound?

It sounds great really, it is the kind of singing that is done with tallent only, no fancy recording tricks.  It is just a good voice with music really.   I thought she sounded like I feel when I am alone somedays as a woman, not a mom but those moments when you have some woman time with your self or your other girl friends doing  bonding or soul searching.   You know those moments when you need a girl's voice to speak to your soul.  I hear that in her.  I felt like she sort of sounded like a mixture of two great ones, Olivia Newton John and Jewel.  

Some of her best known hits are reworked in this album like "Can't Get You Out Of My Head," you won't really recognize it at first.   There is as new song on there called "Flower."  But my favorites were "I believe In You", and "Love at First Sight."    Those were the ones that really spoke to me today.   I like to listen to a new album in different ways in the car, on my iPod, or at work so I get a different perspective for each song.  Some songs are better LOUD!  Some songs are better flowing out of your speakers and floating around the room tickling my ears. You just never know until you experience it each way.  


I hope you will check it out, it won't be disappointing she is so tallented.
