5.0 out of 5 stars love and unrest, May 28, 2003

another strong & emotional release from Alpha. fans of corin dingley & andy jenks' distinct downtempo grooves will, yet again, be pleasantly surprised by their familiar approach in creating a mood that is fueled by love and unrest. although this is a common thread that links all of Alpha's albums, this release is different. like the title, STARGAZING is playful, hopeful & energetic --- which may be indicative of their recent departure from Massive Attack's Melankolic label. the vocal team of martin barnard, helen white & wendy stubbs return; with a new addition of kelvin swaybe who makes a powerful contribution on "elvis." many tracks can stand alone ("lipstick from the asylum," "once round town," & "blue autumn"); however the relationship between each song is what makes this album poignantly beautiful.

ok, i own every cd ever released by this group, but this cd is by far the best to me. the orchestral arrangements are quite unbelievable. i mean, i just cannot put the greatness of this album and group into word. quite amazing. everyone should have a copy of this in their music collection. it's what good, strong, powerful, slow-loving sex feels like

If you liked both Alpha album, but thought The Impossible Thrill was a bit sirupy at times with its grand ochestral movements, fear not this one. It will win you over like Come from Heaven did. The songs with new vocalist are just hauntingly beautiful (pace M. Barnard!).
