Album Notes Personnel: Holly Golightly (vocals, guitar, percussion); Bruce Brand (guitar, concertina, drums, percussion); John Gibbs, Eric Stein, Baine Watson (guitar, bass). Holly Golightly's guest appearance on the White Stripes' 2003 album, ELEPHANT, singing the duet "It's True That We Love One Another," raised the British singer-songwriter's American profile considerably. Happily, however, other than the fact that this album's liner notes were written by Jack White, there is no apparent attempt to curry the favor of a more mainstream audience on 2003's TRULY SHE IS NONE OTHER. As is typically true of her work, these 13 songs sound as if they were recorded quickly but not sloppily, and among the 1960s-revering Golightly originals are four relatively obscure covers, including two songs by the Kinks' Ray Davies, "Tell Me Now So I Know" and "Time Will Tell." Other highlights include "Walk A Mile" and "You Have Yet To Win."
Editorial Reviews ...Amid hip-shaking bass lines, dirty tremoloed guitars and booming drums, Golightly's husky voice melts like butter on toast... Magnet (09/01/2003)
4 stars out of 5 - ...Her sultry rasp - think Nancy Sinatra meets Bettye Lavette - delivers disquieting, brooding self-penned originals over warped, folk-tinged, electric blues... Mojo (09/01/2003)
...A set of appealing folk-rock ditties shot through with girl-group sweetness and a soupcon of punky attitude... - Rating: B+ Entertainment Weekly (07/28/2003)
3 stars out of 5 - ...Golightly employs a Chicago-blues-grounded garage-punk template, backed by a Sixties-style beat combo, with production that sounds like it was state-of-the-art in 1965... Rolling Stone (08/21/2003)
