"It's always
a pleasure to hear someone new on the scene who has real talent.
Someone who fits that description
very nicely is John Enright, who has put together a selection of his own
wonderful saloon songs on his CD. His songwriting style has much
in common with Stephen Sondheim, especially in his feeling for sensitive
romantic reflections.... Many of his songs would fit perfectly in a cabaret
setting... They express genuine feelings about lost love and remembered
relationships." |

"The music:
I really enjoyed it. Your melodies are not only pleasant but they
also have shape. This is a rarity today. There's a beginning,
a middle, and an end to each piece; the songs don't just stop; they actually
end." |

"Haunting,
lonely, almost a one on one, inviting, kind of like looking (maybe waiting)
for an old friend - I might have even had a sad lost love feeling - maybe
reflective of my drinking saloon days on Long Island - or New York Hotels
that I couldn't afford. Your songwriting makes me want to seek and
I don't know what..." |
