Having created a worldwide sensation with their albums
Forgiven, Not Forgotten and
Talk on Corners, Ireland's Corrs await the hit that will break them wide open in America. To that end, the group (who've earned a
Rolling Stones openers slot) has issued a retooled version of its sophomore set, featuring five songs recast by some of Europe's hottest mixmasters, including K-Klass ("So Young"), Tin Tin ("What Can I Do?" and "Runaway," the latter song being from the group's debut), and "Dreams" (the
Stevie Nicks song, remixed by
Todd Terry, who turned
Everything but the Girl's "Missing" into a smash). The new mixes for the most part aren't radical departures from the originals but strip away some elements, and add some spit and polish to others. "Dreams" is notable for taking the song even harder toward the dance floor without losing its appealing Celtic edge. The rest of the album is the same as the original version of
Talk on Corners minus a few tracks, but still including their lovely version of
Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing."
