Hmm...this is great "????" music June 29, 2008 14 out of 16 found this review helpful
What should I put for the "????" bit. Not sure is matters, but it isn't pure folk music,(whatever that is). I won't dissect tracks here as there is so much variety. Instead I will state why it ticks boxes for me. Great music should have quality whatever the genre, sometimes with invention, but certainly it should either move me or excite me. Liza's latest does all these things. She really is ploughing her own furrow these days, and with great success. Will punters like it ? As it doesn't sound like anyone else it's hard to tell. However, for past Liza fans I would say if you were happy with Red Rice, or the much maligned Angels and Cigarettes,(which I actually thought was a superb diversion), then I reckon this will work for you. In summary - one of the great albums of recent times irrespective of genre, deserving of 6 stars for imagination,(and unlike some other reinventers not losing the plot). She is a national treasure,(bet she would hate that description), who continues to surprise and delight in equal measure.
A stunning record May 29, 2008 12 out of 15 found this review helpful
This is a CD to raise a few eyebrows and create a few waves. The songs are believable, the backings are exciting and there is a sense of freedom and fun pervading the whole record. Absolutely brilliant.
Fantastic - Eliza's best album yet May 9, 2008 17 out of 22 found this review helpful
I heard the album over the Bank Holiday weekend at Eliza's online listening party, and it was simply brilliant. An innovative and colourful showcase of Eliza's songwriting talent. In my opinion, her best album yet!
