Great Album!

"As a long time fan of Tahiti 80, I believe this latest work is a great album!



It sounds like the one negative reviewer was annoyed that album wasn't more rock? No thanks! I'm happy with the direction this album has gone in. Funky and Smooth!



On Xavier's voice and the music sounding the same. He sounds like Xavier and the band sounds like Tahiti 80. What's bad about that? It has the same amount of electronic production as previous albums except it simply sounds more prominent on this one.



Overall... just think of their previous songs... but funkier and smoother. Less rock and more relaxation."
Fosbury -fantastique!

"Having only come across "Fosbury" and Tahiti 80 in the past three weeks, I guess I'm a little late in finding out about, what I consider is, this marvellous group. "Fosbury" is one of my favourite records of this year. To me, the album's melodic, shiny, funky and, seemingly, effortlessly fresh. The rhythms are great: locked in and riding the groove. The melodies feel warm but slightly melancholic to me, making it my perfect daily soundtrack, here at the end of summer in London. That said, songs like 'Changes' and 'Big Day' fizz with positivity and enthusiasm putting a spring in my step on the way to work - and that's saying something! While there are a lot of songs on the album, I don't feel "Fosbury" ever really loses energy; it simply changes the pace from a clipped blue-eyed soul track to a gentle ballad that reminds me of Paul McCartney [a good thing in my books, but I appreciate others may draw a breath in horror at that remark...]. Overall, I have thoroughly enjoyed "Fosbury" and having had the pleasure of seeing the group perform live last week, I can say they also do the album justice on stage and are a lovely bunch of guys. Vive Tahiti 80!"
