5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely stunning stuff, February 24, 2001

This review is from: Elegant Slumming (Audio CD)

M People has always been one of my favourite groups. The songs they have published over the years have been so appropriate to the world we live in, even though many people have not always had the appreciation of being faced with that blatant truth.

Elegant Slumming starts off with One Night In Heaven, a joyful track. Moving on Up is one of those tracks that you play with vindication after a difficult time... the words "I'm movin' on up, you're movin' on out... nothing can stop me" are so true and are so self-medicating :)

Colour My Life is a bit sad. Renaissance is funky, although it is a bit repetitive. Don't Look Any Further is... just great. All in all, there is a track for every mood.

Ever since 1991, when M People hit the music scene with Northern Soul, people for all walks of life have flocked to listen to them. One of the most memborable classic albums by M People is Elegant Slumming. Winning the Mercury Music Prize, by beating off groups like Pulp and Blur, M People have taken the world with storm with Elegant Slumming.END
