Customer Review: exit siobhan..welcome jacqui!
well siobhan left and the girls brought in jacqui! three singles “preacher man” “long train running” and “only your love” preceeded the release…none huge hits! and it seems some of the magic had gone! the production although handed from saw still had a huge dance/eurobeat feel..but the songs never matched up! maybe they tried to move with the times and sadly although ok nothing stands out..its not a bad album just a bit boring after what they had done before!
Customer Review: Ripe for revisionist adoration!
Having waved goodbye to a phenomenally successful 1980s with the seemingly unstoppable commercial might of their “Greatest Hits Collection”, Bananarama heard what was happening around them and decided a fresh sound was needed. With seamlessly introduced new recruit Jacquie O’Sullivan in tow, the girls drafted in the likes of Youth and Shep Pettibone to helm production on this fifth studio album. And it’s – mostly – a revelation. Rhythmically innovative (their cover of “Long Train Running” foreshadows the Latin invasion by some 8 years!), and vocally confident throughout, this is a re-invigorated Bananarama. The likes of “I Can’t Let You Go” and “What Colour R The Skies Where U Live?” would, under normal circumstances, be throwaway filler, but thanks to haunting production work (which still sounds fresh today) even these tracks become blissed-out keepers. Meanwhile opening track “Preacher Man”, the album’s most successful single, is as close to dancefloor euphoria as anything Bananarama ever delivered. There are disappointments; “Outta Sight” never really worked, and although the frothily enjoyable “Heartless” sounds like the lovechild of “I Can’t Help It”, it does sit awkwardly at the close of the original album. Cruelly overlooked at the time, “Pop Life” faltered after only one week in the UK album charts at a lowly #42. This reissue series affords new listeners the opportunity to put right this oversight.

Customer Review: Yo Ho Ho!
This deserves a wordier review! This great Liverpool trio seem to be lumped in with yer basic NME-friendly shoutalong indie but theres a lot more to them than that. There’s all sorts of stuff going on here. Really great songwriting, some great Pirate/Sea shanty references, some off-kilter time signatures, great lyrics, choruses you can sing along to, great harmony vocals and lots of whoops and hollers! Think a supercharged Field Music, XTC, or maybe The Battles if they decided to write pop songs. To cap it all, theres a sort of Afro-pop element there as well that Peelie would have loved. Many moments of sheer, unhinged delight in a field of its own.
Customer Review: Excellent Album!!!
I recently bought this album after going to a Hot Club gig and it is fantastic. Gets you singing along and chuckling at the lyrics. If you ever get a chance to see Hot Club De Paris live, do it… you will not regret it!
