 exceptionally eroica.

| Eroica is Wendy & Lisa at the top. I love love love this album so much my tape wore out. Every tune is a hit musically and lyrically. This album "Turn Me Inside Out" for these talented ladies. Wendy & Lisa's sound is what most of the so-called innovative female artists are trying to catch up to and don't even no it. |

 Some of Wendy and Lisa's Best Work!

This is the third album from Wendy and Lisa... the most recent being White Flags of Winter Chimneys which is not sold through Amazon yet but can only be purchased through their `official' website. "Eroica" is cited by some Wendy and Lisa fans to be their best work (short of possibly "White Flags"). This is one of their first albums that feature songs using their unique `alternative' sound. The album includes their charted hit "Strung Out". The album transcends musical genres ranging from funky up-tempo tunes such as "Rainbow Lake" and "Skeleton Key" to mellow pop/rock songs such as "Mother of Pearl" (with featured vocals from K.D. Lang), "Crack in the Pavement", "Why Wait for Heaven", and "Starting at the Sun". There are also songs which are a little reminiscent of their `alternative' sound found on the "Girl Bros" album such as "Porch Swing" and "Valley Vista". Other than "Strung Out", one of the stand outs on the album is "Don't Try To Tell Me", a beautiful ballad backed with an extraordinary sting composition and is the only song on the album with lead vocals by Lisa Coleman.
This album is truly a terrific album! It is one of Wendy and Lisa's best! The complex music composition and melodies provide a glimpse into the tremendous talent that these ladies possess!

 Pretty Good

I got this CD used, and as a long term fan of the Prince and the Revolution days, I thought it was worth the price.
Someone compared this to Sheryl Crow. No doubt, and good call. It has that, er...swingy feeling to it? Perhaps that's not the best word, but its not a bad thing at all.
It's kinda funky at times, and kinda jazzy at times and I would call it alternative because it would never get commercial airplay (which is often no indication of a CD's qualities.) I would personally have to be in the right mood to really appreciate its style, but that's not a knock on this CD by any means. |

| These two very talented and beautiful ladies deserve so much more attention for their true musical gifts. They keep turning out some of the best music ever and hardly anyone gets the chance to hear it or know about it. This cd is just too cool to describe. You better buy it and see what Wendy and Lisa have created. |
