Customer reviews of Simple Things

Customer Rating:      Summary: Smiles and laughter: Music that puts pep in your step !!! Comment: This CD is great. While I find most of Mr. Brickman's music very soothing, I find this soothing but in a different way. It seems like he scooped up a great day and put it to music. The music is soothing, and yet a little jazzy at times, but in the end its all good. The Simple Things song reminds us of just that. The rest of the songs remind me of sunshine!
Thanks for sharing your gift Mr. B.
Rock on!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Jim Brickman: Simple Things Comment: Jim Brickman is a FANTASTIC piano player. His "Simple Things" album is top quality, legendary Brickman piano playing. Amazon provided top quality service, too! Thanks.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Simple Things Comment: This Cd is a GReat one. Jim Brickman 's Style transcends through time as one of the best !! You might think that he's repeating some of his songs if you have listened to his other albums . All together a wonderful job on the piano. I couldn't wait to repeat the track all over again.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Beautiful, relaxing music Comment: I have a very stressful job, and I listen to this music on the way home from work to help wind down and let go of the stress. Jim Brickman is a masterful pianist who plays lovely selections.
Customer Rating:      Summary: I LOVE THIS CD Comment: I, BEYOND ANY DOUBT, LOVE THIS CD. Jim Brickman's gentle finesse takes me from my usually stressed out and chaotic day to a simpler world where I can unwind and imagine I am in a peaceful and serene paradise. I love to put this CD in when I get home from school, work, or whatever. No matter what, it will put me in a better mood and make me feel "soothed".
I have always been a fan of Jim Brickman, and all of his CDs are superb, but I truly loved "Simple Things". Jim Brickman is an amazing pianist and his unique touch will keep you thinking about his songs after you listen to them. As the title somewhat suggests ("Simple Things") this CD is "simple". Jim Brickman tends to play in the same key and in the same tone throughout a lot of his songs. I have heard that many people do not like this idea and think that Jim Brickman needs to reach beyond his norm to express his talent even further. However, I like the simplicity of his music. I especially like it because I know I can just play the CD and listen to the entire thing and stay in the same state of mind. I hate putting in a CD and having to get up and press the skip button because you do not like a certain song. With "Simple Things" I can just put it in and not worry bout it. It's great!
I love this CD and the truth is, if you like relaxing piano solo's and love to just chill out after work, or whatever it is that you do, you will love this CD as much as I do too.

Editorial Reviews:
|
Genuinely moving at times, a bit sentimental at others, pianist Jim Brickman's seventh career release is ultimately a worthwhile, satisfying package. Adhering to the simplicity theme, Brickman front-loads the disc with 10 melodic, nonvocal tracks (a gracious nod to longtime fans), then tacks on a trio of vocal selections. Even instrumental hard-liners, though, should indulge in the disc's fetching title track. Penned with Beth Neilsen Chapman and sung sweetly by fresh country talent Rebecca Lynn Howard), it's a sparkling reaffirmation of Brickman's substantial pop songwriting skills. Those looking for deeper rewards will find them on "The Promise," a beautiful, reflective work that ranks among Brickman's finest compositions: the spare orchestrations (random violin, guitar, electronics) in the first nine pieces that focus the disc's emotional directness on Brickman's piano; the urbane grooves that energize "Serenade." Occasionally ("Catching Twilight," "Gate 41"), Brickman takes aim at easier emotional targets, playing more notes (with more force) than seems necessary, plus the heart-clutching "A Mother's Day" seems out of place here. But these are minor blemishes. Overall, it's an engaging recording. --Terry Wood
