Cover Review,
By "tntreat" (allston, ma United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Struggle (Audio CD)
This upbeat album with raga-based melodies was ahead of its time when initially released in 1985. The Hindu chant on "Om Shanti Om" features gentle blues guitar behind multi-tracked vocals. This album was Sheila's third solo project after leaving her band Monsoon.
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Struggle (Audio CD)
No one in the US will know this, but in 1982 a pop group named Monsoon topped the UK charts with a song called "Ever So Lonely". The band made several apearances on the "Top of the Pops" and Sheila Chandra made her debut with this band. Here in "The Struggle" she takes that indie-pop sound into her solo debut and it is wonderful.
Sheila has been one of the most fantastic, yet underappreciated vocalists around, and it is a pity. Fot those who love Sheila's more traditional works of her later years, this may not be the album you will want to hear, or maybe it will show more about this artist than you knew? Anyway it is an album I was glad to find again...having the original on vinyl... Hope that Sheila is still around recording, in whatever style because she is great! |
