Set firmly within the musical stylings of a genre once known as easy listening, <em>Let Go<\/em>, is a sumptuous feast of instruments expertly woven together in a landscape that is reminiscent of an inspirational movie score. This is a full length album, boasting an impressive 12 tracks that blend from track to track.<\/p>\n<p>Beginning with &#8220;What a Creator,&#8221; Sarah&#8217;s vocals remind the listener of singers like Anne Murray, and Amy Grant&#8217;s early albums. <em>Let Go<\/em> picks up a bit with the island inspired track &#8220;Here I Am.&#8221; The tracks tend to blend into each other, like a soft water colored painting, perfectly painting a peacefully soft pastel background for listening and thinking upon the lyrics.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a definite nostalgic feeling to the style and feel of <em>Let Go<\/em>. It reminds me of sitting in a well cleaned parlor of a deacon&#8217;s wife, waiting for bible study to start, tea cups and tiny scones. It&#8217;s a warm feeling, not an unwelcome feeling, just surprising and somewhat exciting to hear someone resurrecting easy listening in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>This would be a great album to purchase for someone who loves Anne Murray, Amy Grant, The Osmonds, Crystal Gayle, Judy Collins, and Helen Reddy. Or would be great to play in a nursery for infants, as there are only soft notes and never too stirring a beat, and beautifully sung songs.<\/p>\n<p>Released in January of 2016, it is available through\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cdbaby.com\/cd\/sarahegalimore\">CDBaby<\/a>, and briefly on <a href=\"http:\/\/noisetrade.com\/sarahgalimore\/let-go\">noisetrade<\/a>.
