Biography

Liz Phair is an American singer-songwriter born in 1967.

Her career began after a series of tapes she made as The Girly Sound came to the attention of Matador Records in 1992. Exile in Guyville followed in 1993 to rave reviews. Consequently the release of Whip-Smart (1994) was much anticipated and promoted. It debuted at No.27 but though it achieved gold classification it did not sell as well as… Read more in Amazon's Liz Phair Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Up on it's own pedestal, November 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Whip-Smart (Audio CD)
The good thing about Liz Phair's CD's is that you can't justifiably compare them. Saying "It's not as good as Guyville" or whitechocolatespaceegg wouldn't work, simply because they are so different. Totally different styles. If you want another Guyville then you are not going to get it. If you want something different, a little quirky but heartfelt and very accessable then you'll like this CD. I like all of her songs best, depending on my mood. I admit I didn't like it that much when I first heard it cause the first Liz CD I had was whitechocolatespaceegg and secretly I wanted a different version of that. Suffice to say I didn't get it and after the shock wares off that this isn't what you expected, you can really begin to enjoy it in it's own right.

4.0 out of 5 stars Second to Guyville, June 20, 2002
By

This review is from: Whip-Smart (Audio CD)
If you want to know what Liz Phair is all about, get Exile in Guyville, her first album. It is a lot more passionate and groundbreaking. This is also a great album, but it is more mainstream and repetitive than her last songs. "Supernova" is her MTV debut, so it is great but not exactly an inspired original. I love every second of Exile and there are a couple of songs I skip over on this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars I think that I'm addicted...., December 21, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Whip-Smart (Audio CD)
This album is absolutely incredible. I first heard it about 3 years ago, and there has not been a period of time where I have listened to it less than once a week since. She seemed to have beared so much of her soul in making this album that it seriously makes her irresistable! I'm not sure if I'd say that this album is better than Exile or Whitechocolate but there is no way I could give it anything less than 5 stars. Liz, keep the albums coming....
