 Wonderful

| Some albums you can listen to for a week or two.@A good album can sound fresh for maybe a year, but I`ve been regularly listening to this for the last 17 years. And it still impresses me. So obviously anyone who likes the earlier Everything But the Girl and particularly those who always found Ben Watt a bit irritating should be interested. If you are a real fan you should also check out Tracy`s earlier still incarnation as one of the Marine Girls where you will find some sweet and youthful songs, but nothing quite as splendid as Distant Shore |

 Tracy before the Girl

| As one who can appriciate Everything but the Girl pre-Todd Terry mix of "missing," this is a very enjoyable album. As EBTG moves to the icon status of this wonderful female voice behind Ben Watt's beats--constantly challenging the adult-contemporary audience, inspiring the dance/electronic world, as well as my girlfriend's father's (a man in his 50s) ears--it's nice to remember where they came from. Tracy and her guitar, a few vocal layers in the mixing--that's it. this album is beautiful in it's simplicity. Highpoints to enjoy while you relax or immerse in melancholia, is "new opened eyes" and her cover of lou reed's "femme fatale." you'll get this album if you love her mysterious vocals--a bit unrefined, lacking confidence, but wonderful. |
