JANE BOGAERT - 5th Dimension (2010)

"Music is my life" - says Jane Bogaert.
This is already obvious listening one of her songs here : » For breakfast I'll have AC/DC, for dinner I'll have Queen, and in-between so soft and easy with Aerosmith and Cream... «

Being educated at the conservatoire in Biel and the school of musicals in Munich where she took singing lessons, her voice has matured during a couple of first tries as a solo singer and back-up jobs for A-Ha, Thin Lizzy, Al Jarreau, Ochsenknecht.
At the turn of the millennium she represented Switzerland at the Eurovision Song Festival.

For this solo album, "5th Dimension", Jane Bogaert worked with the songwriters Robert Papst and Günther Skitschak, both of DOMINOE fame.
Guesting are such famous artists as Jeff Scott Soto, Joe Lynn Turner, John Edwards (Status Quo), Matt Beck (Rod Stewart) and Charlie Morgan (Elton John).
It surely must help spreading the word, but Jane Bogaert doesn’t need it, because she’s a good vocalist in her own right.

Deeply rooted in the '80s, this is a more than agreeable melodic rock record, featuring really good songs as "Still There For Me", "Give It Up", the ballad "Crazy", "The Lady Needs An Upgrade" and "Open Your Heart".
Great production job by DOMINOE mastermind Robert Papst.
