Album Notes Everything But The Girl: Ben Watt (vocals, acoustic guitar, synthesizers, programming); Tracey Thorn (vocals). Additional personnel: Howie B (programming, scratches); Spring Heel Jack (programming). Producers: Ben Watt, Spring Heel Jack, Howie B, Todd Terry, Omni Trio. Engineers include: Ben Watt, Mads Bjerke, Matthius H. Recorded at Little Joey's, Milo and The Strongroom, London, England in 1995. Ben and Tracey went clubbing last night and decided to go straight from the dance floor to the studio. They emerge with WALKING WOUNDED, an album that features Tracey's plaintive vocals backed by layers of electronic percussion. Tracey's soul-baring singing pulls you into the songs--we ride with her atop waves of drum beats and dreamy orchestrations in dance styles that vary from jungle to hip-hop to house. The combination brings about an interesting sensation: The beats move your feet while her wistful voice eases you into a state of relaxation. Melody and melancholy are wrapped together in these dance-sized pieces. So are crossover and hit: In Europe, a remix of the title song was the first true pop/jungle hit. (Simultaneously in the U.S., a remix of "Missing," a track from the band's previous album, AMPLIFIED HEART, stayed on the Billboard pop chart for more than a year, longer than any single in Billboard history.)

Reviews  Great vocal / ambient / electronic album - a classic! This was the first EBTG album I picked up after a friend gave me a track on a mix CD. The vocals and music are mesmerizing - lots of emotion and great production quality over all. Even though this album is over 10 years old it still feels modern and very listenable. I still add this album into my playlists for parties and events. Last night I included several tracks while DJing an eBay User Experience Design party for about 300 in San Jose - got a lot of comments on the music during the night. You should add this CD to your collection! Review ID: 10000000003469554 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
