Description:

Second album released in 1994; between the first, which was widely heard with the smash hit of Unfinished Sympathy, and the third, which was a worldwide hit, the album received a not-so-good? A modest reputation. However, the first single (1) featuring Tracey Thorn gave me goosebumps from the intro. The fine wah guitar and the delay on the hi-hat break part is a real treat. The fine wah guitar and the delay of the hi-hat break are really beautiful even after a quarter of a century has passed since the release of the song. Craig Armstrong, who would later become famous in the world of film music, also adds a beautiful piano repetition to the song. Tricky, an old friend of mine from the Wild Bunch days, also participated in this album (Nellie Hooper produced).No wonder the music press at the time described it as "the perfect music for a drive through the city at 4:00 in the morning. The drive would be even better if it rained. (c)Shinichi Takemori
