4.0 out of 5 stars Another gem in my collection, October 14, 2004

By 

Chris Ochman "The Eclectic Listener" (Fredericksburg, VA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Smitten (Audio CD)

This album was quirky enough for me to pick up and love to listen to!

How would I compare this....hmmmm....I would probably say she is more like Tracy Bonham than anything. But PowerPop? I wouldn't go that far. She is NOT Aqua (or is that quirky powerpop?) or the spice girls.

This is rather laid back kind of music, good stuff. It's the kind of stuff you'd listen to in a coffee shop. Good music, and a wonderful singer. The guitars are very good in this album as well, and I am looking forward to another release.

My favorite tracks on this album have to be "You Are the One", "People In This World" and "Big Three Wheeler". "People in this World" has to be one of the heavier songs, along with "Flyer".

If you like Tracy Bonham....(if you even know who she is, she did that amazing song, "Behind Every Good Woman"), you'll probably like this album as well.

4.0 out of 5 stars Miss that Pixies guitar fuzz? Look no further!, May 10, 2004

This album is great; I just got a signed copy (available thru Tower.com) in the mail today. If you like the band's song "Free" on the Empire Records soundtrack, this is more of the same. However, Joey Santiago (Pixies) does get to venture into more sonically inclined territory. (For a preview, check out "Flyer," the album's invigorating opener. If the Pixies are to return to the studio together, we're all in for good times!)

This is a great album for fans of Joey Santiago and his work with the Pixies. If you love his guitar play, then I would definitely suggest buying this.
