CD Reviews

No masterpiece, but still worthwhile
William Merrill | San Antonio, TX United States | 07/03/2001
(4 out of 5 stars)

"It's hard not to listen to Ms. Thorn's 1982 EP without thinking of her in Everything But The Girl. In these eight early songs, there are hints of the retro feel of some EBTG music (in her jaunty cover of the VU classic "femme fatale," and in the breezy Bacharachian feel of "Dreamy"). Since it's just Tracey singing with her own guitar as accompaniment, I was also struck by her skills as a guitar player. I already knew she could do more than just sing after seeing EBTG live a few years ago, but her guitar work on this CD is solid throughout. None of these tunes approaches the level of her best work with Ben Watt in EBTG, but some of them are still quite good."
Surprised...

"to see mine being the first review. An excellent album and I agree with the "critics" who suggest that the album is worth it alone for Too Happy. Treat yourself"
