Customer Reviews

A Worthy Tribute
Beatles diehards will sadly never give this music a chance. A great shame indeed, for it is both respectful and insightful. Dickson's voice, after 40 years in show business is as beautiful as ever and she injects a fresh folk feel that is wierdly ancient and contemporary at the same time. 'Eleanor Rigby' sounds like a really old folk song, delivered a capella and ghost-like. Lesser known songs like 'Rain' or 'Things We Said Today'are just beautiful and 'Across The Universe'is ethereal.Dickson deserves respect for her longevity and courage in her choices of songs to sing. She's come a long way from January, February and it looks like this album could change a lot of peoples opinions.

A Touch of Class
What attracted me to this album was a song played one morning by Terry Wogan on Radio 2, 'The Fool On The Hill'. Terry announced that the new album would be released quite soon afterwards so I kept watching out for it. Now that I have received it, I can't stop playing it. Barbara Dickson has provided us with a beautiful interpretation of some of the best Beatles ballads. Her interpretations are very different from the originals but equally as good. The arrangements are rich and warm - very easy listening. And, of course, Barbara's beautfil voice shines through. The Beatles songs themselves are beautifully written - absolute poetry - and Barbara has done them justice. An excellent Album - A Touch of Class! The Beatles would be proud.

A Masterpiece
I am a Beatles fan through and through. Nobody has ever done justice to a Beatles song in my eyes - until now!

I have always thought that Barbara was one of the best Singers I have ever heard, so you can imagine my curiosity when I found that she had produced an album of Beatles tracks!

I bought the CD with great expectations, I thought if anyone can pull this off it would be Barbara, after all she's a big Beatles fan herself. Well to say that I was pleasantly surprised would be the understatement of the century.

This album is absolutely remarkable, the emotion that Barbara brings to these wonderful songs makes you appreciate even more how well they are written.
