Customer Reviews
A great album
No fancy words needed to tell you what a great album this is.
When it was released, I rated the debut single "Promise Me" the best chart debut in the UK for 20 years, since the Carpenters "Close To You". I still think that.
Ms Craven's breathy voice is a charm, her songs are simple and about everyday things, the hope of love, girlfriends, dogs, even! Different styles of music, including a gentle reggae number, played by a bunch of top class musicians from the world of folk and pop - and an excellent closing number is "Missing You".
The album has aged well and sounds as relevant today as it did when it was released. It just a pity that she only produced two more albums, which were not as good, but still highly satisfying.
Superb Voice, Interesting Blend of Music
Unlike many female vocalists, her voice doesn't grate on the nerves--she has a wonderfully mellow tone. The blend of styles on this CD is interesting, ranging from ballads to the quirky, New Orleans flavor of Missing You. I love this album. I just wish her work was readily available in the States!
My nomination for one of the all-time great albums.
Soaring vocals, superb melodies and deeply meaningful lyrics carry you along on a sea of emotion. Every track is unique, every one is a gem and they will all last forever. Miss Craven is an incredibly talented artiste deserving of a far wider audience. I cannot recommend this album more highly, it is a masterpiece.
