5.0 out of 5 stars An all-time favorite, August 17, 2004

I've owned this album since it was released. I was a hard-core 80s pop listener, and a lot of the music I liked back then is now fun for nostalgia purposes but little else. This album is a huge exception to that general statement. It changed the way I looked at pop music, made me appreciate the influence of soul in the UK and just holds up really, really well. Without it I'm not sure I would have found my way to jazz, soul and even country as quickly. Definitely worth a listen every once and a while. I'd say skip "The Raw and the Cooked," too. It's like this stuff with a disco beat.

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant debut album, March 7, 2001

I have been a FYC fan since the get go. Their music is just so soothing. Roland Gift's voice is great. You can really feel the passion that he puts into it.

The songs are great, in particular, "Johnny Come Home", the cover of "Suspicious Minds"(With Jimmy Sommerville[Bronski Beat/The Communards] assisting on vocals) and "Blue", along with the remixes of "Johnny" and Suspicious Minds".

Definitely one of the better things to come out of the eighties

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding, January 16, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Fine Young Cannibals (Audio CD)

This debut album by FYC is a true musical triumph. I too have owned this album for more than 10 years and I never tire of listening to it. This album may not have won awards like "The Raw and the Cooked," but, I find it to be the superior album. The album is consistant in its style and provides a coherent listening experience that is missing in "the cooked." This album is a must have for any music lover. This is one of those rare music collections which gets better everytime you listen.
