Beautiful Mess (Japanese pressing)
CD (Item 470484) Avex (Japan), 2008 — Condition: New Copy
These guys just keep getting better and better – growing up with a mature sound that we never would have expected a few decades back – to a level where they're easily one of the hippest, most sophisticated acts around! As on other recent albums, there's a really classic vibe going on here – a love of 60s soul, fused through 70s R&B – all served up with a polished, focused sound that's really wonderful – never too commercial to sound like mainstream pop, and always delivered with a great sense of depth, both in the vocals and instrumentation. There's plenty of warm jazzy touches on the record, which really help to further the soulful leads of singer Corinne Drewery – and the whole thing's near-perfect all the way through, filled with the kind of songwriting few other groups never seem to match! Titles include "All I Say All I Do", "I'd Be Happy", "Butterfly Lullaby", "Beautiful Mess", "My State Of Mind", and "Butterfly". CD also features 2 bonus tracks – "Butterfly (Little Wizard mix)" and "Something Every Day (Little Wizard mix)". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
