beautifully rendered melodic pop for the masses. accessible, but almost haunting and mellow as a late summer day. brilliant disc.

You wont find any paeans to rollerskating on C&R's new disc, but nonetheless, this is easily the rollerblading album of the year. It's also great music for windsurfing and paragliding. Imagine driving with your best friends on a windy country road by the sea (after a day of rollerblading, windsurfing, or paragliding). None of you say a word to each other for 38 minutes, entraced by Clough's rose petal soprano, Rubi's crystal machines, Loewenthal's magical singing bass guitar, Dalrymple's metro-gnome kit (built by woodland elves in the beforetime), and Judd's post-Nascimento riffing. You've heard their old songs on MTV's The Real World, but this is the music for the real world. Also available on cassette in the Philippines.

Even though this album is over 6 years old I continue to hope for a new release. These songs are like beautiful poems set to music. If you read along to the lyrics you"ll find yourself singing along before too long.

I purchased this album not having any idea what it would sound like. I knew that I had wanted the CD but I could not remember at all what it had sounded like.

Upon recieving the album, I placed it into my CD player, and I am VERY pleased with it. The vocals are lovely and it is a great album to just sit back and relax to.

If you are hesitant... just buy it. TRUST ME.
