A major disappointment - I was a fan of the original book, but this is awful. The woman who does the voice of "Lola" on 3 different tracks is so harsh that it's hard to listen to her. _What_ were they thinking using this voice? The rest of the writing is trite and forced, with but one honest piece about a lesbian encounter near the end. Skip it, it appears to be just an attempt to tag onto the original success.

I guess I thought: "What could it be" if it's just words. But the words were seductive and literate and... I guess just titillating. And the music is beautiful and varied: rock, jazz, modern, very moving... and I just felt that it moved me and excited me and made me feel like I was there. I had never felt until I heard this that I could imagine something that would be so sexy and just be sound. I really like it, I really recommend it. It's not for the squeamish, that's for sure, but if you like to be turned on, and think it should happen in a way that makes you feel like you're part of a story, then you'll love this. If you don't like dirty words, don't buy it.

I had a chance to see the performance of The Erotica Project: Sex at 19 at Joe's Pub in New York City and I am glad to find the original cast on this album. The material is very strong and literate but still leaves space for imagination and manages to create a stage atmosphere on CD. This is possible because of strong writing in combination with subliminal music. Every piece has its own identity. LOLA shows no regard for conservative ears on this CD. My favorite story is Black Clogs. I could not stop laughing. This material is a must for any collection because there is simply nothing like it! Believe me.
