She’s recorded vocals on over 100 albums and has been a special guest with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and now she’s releasing her sophomore album - Beautiful Life. Find out if Jenny Jordan Frogley’s album is up to snuff for this LDSreview.net critic!

Jenny Jordan Frogley is the voice you’ve heard on countless collaborative albums. I recognized her from Women of Destiny and The Best of EFY. More recently, she performed with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing amazing vocals in the song “Circle of Life”. She’s different from other LDS vocalists in the fact that she has an extremely powerful voice. It’s not meek and quiet like a lot of other LDS singers. That’s not to say it’s overly loud and irritating; quite the contrary - it’s beautiful.

I must be honest, however. Frogley’s album, Beautiful Life includes not only the new album, but also a free bonus disc with some of her best songs. I listened to the bonus disc first to see if I recognized any of the songs. Sure enough, hits like “His Hands” (from Kenneth Cope’s Greater than Us All), “A Woman’s Heart” (from Women of Destiny) and “These Are the Days” (from Best of EFY) triggered my memory (and my love) of Frogley’s voice. Next, I popped in the new album only to discover the songs from the bonus disc playing! I don’t know if this is a mistake on the reviewer’s copy that LDSreview.net received or if it’s a problem with production, but I was very disappointed. I have listened to the album on Frogley’s website (see below), and it’s absolutely gorgeous. Dare I say she sounds a bit like Kelly Clarkson? That’s a huge compliment, in my book.

You can find Beautiful Life at an LDS retailer near you, or online at www.deseretbook.com. For information on Jenny Jordan Frogley, visit www.JennyJordanFrogley.com.
