He also recruits a cast of singers to help bring the songbook to life, including Wayne Brady, Kassie DePaiva, and two American Idol alumni, Kimberley Locke and Josh Gracin. Brady's "Beautiful" and Locke's "A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes" compare favorably with Disney's own pop versions of songs like "A Whole New World," ...

A good-natured listening experience, The Disney Songbook may not be among Brickman's all-time best albums, but it's never less than relaxing and sweet.

    Jim Brickman's "The Disney Songbook" is awesome

    Jim Brickman does a fantastic job "brickmanzing" the these Disney classics.Jim has his own style of playing that captivates his audience. Jim is so emotional and passionate as he plays especially "Beauty and The Beast" and "Can You Fell the Love Tonight" with Tracy Silverman accompanying Jim with his electric violin. The sounds that they make are mind blowing. Wayne Brady sings "Beautiful" is done superbly. Jim has a great mixture of slow and lively songs which included "Cruella De Vil", "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah, & "When I See an Elephant Fly" sung by Lila MCCann. He brings back memories with "Some Day My Prince Will Come', "A Dream Is A Wich Your Heart Makes", and "When You Wish Upon A Star" . Lila McCann does an awesome job singin "I'm Amazed". Jim's playing the Disney Classics is mindblowing, it brings back so many childhood memories of watching the Disney classics and having Walt Disney talk before the show. Thanks Jim for doing such an outstanding job with the Disney classics. This CD is a must for adults and well as children. It is one the kids can sing along with as well as the adults since we have heeard these songs for many years. Way to go Jim.
