CD Reviews

Very much like BUBBLEGUM PERFUME but w/out the instrumentals

Todd E. Jones | Edison, NJ USA | 07/14/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Very much like BUBBLEGUM PERFUME but w/out the instrumentals.. it's true.. but this is MORE like a cross between ABSOLUTE CLASSIC MAST and BUBBLEGUM... Something Sends me to sleep and Penelope Tree!!! If you have all the PROPER albums and even BUBBLE GUM, this has a unreleased (or rare) version of SUNLIGHT BATHES THE GOLDEN GLOW. There are STRINGS and a female backing vocalist!!! Also, the FORTUNE is NOT the version on CRUMBLING.. it's the one on ABSOLUTE CLASSIC... Also, this has BE STILL, BALLAD OF THE BAND, SANDMAN'S ON THE RISE and SPACE BLUES that was also released on BUBBLEGUM..No booklet with writings, just songs... brilliant and beautiful songs from FELT... but this is a compilation depending on what you have. If you don't have anything by them, this is a wonderful introduction to FELT."

Overlooked and Possibly Essential

Tyler Price | 06/09/2004

"If you're a fan of Belle & Sebastian then you've probably read Stuart Murdoch name drop or even rave about Felt (even ranking them higher than The Smiths or Orange Juice). And if you like the afforementioned artists you'll probably like Felt.This is an excellent collection for the casual listener (which I am so I'm not sure what it offers for the Felt collector). If you're put off by the Belle & Sebastian reference above I appoligize - Felt will equally appeal to fans of Lou Reed's vocal delivery or Television's guitar interplay (toned down however). Felt is like the missing link to defend your fondness of chamber and twee pop while still maintaining your New York underground and punk collection."
