AMG Rates this a 4.5 out of 5.0 "Album Pick", I've listened to this twice and it really is good! I guess you can call it Electronic/Dance music. This was the group's 1st and best CD!! Listen to it on Spotify!! - DN

Timeless Classics

"Ever since 1991, when M People hit the music scene with Northern Soul, people for all walks of life have flocked to listen to them. One of the most memborable classic albums by M People is Elegant Slumming. Winning the Mercury Music Prize, by beating off groups like Pulp and Blur, M People have taken the world with storm with Elegant Slumming.END"
Absolutely stunning stuff

"M People has always been one of my favourite groups. The songs they have published over the years have been so appropriate to the world we live in, even though many people have not always had the appreciation of being faced with that blatant truth.Elegant Slumming starts off with One Night In Heaven, a joyful track. Moving on Up is one of those tracks that you play with vindication after a difficult time... the words "I'm movin' on up, you're movin' on out... nothing can stop me" are so true and are so self-medicating :)Colour My Life is a bit sad. Renaissance is funky, although it is a bit repetitive. Don't Look Any Further is... just great. All in all, there is a track for every mood."
FABULOUS, FABULOUS, ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!!
