CD Reviews

A real charmer

Christian Buckley | Washington State, United States | 11/17/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Introduced to the band in college back in early 1987, I instantly connected with what I viewed as a "happy version of the Smiths". Looking back, I'm not sure why I made that connection, but a lot of people seemed to have done the same thing. Always upbeat and fun, the Housemartins squeezed 2 albums and more of a compilation+extras (this album) out of their three years together. If you're looking for one album to buy and you don't own their first two, get this one. It has the hits, plus some great acapella and slow numbers that are simple and beautiful."

SIMPLY AMAZING!!

"If you are into real music made with pasion and conviction about what real music is, then this is the cd to listen to. Do not hasitate, just buy it and even learn to like it if you didn't yet. It is really really good music"
