Synopsis

Product Description

Foxbase Alpha is Saint Etienne's debut album.

Released in 1991 it was nominated for the inaugural Mercury Music Prize (won by Primal Scream) and is now cited as one of the classic albums of the era. The album is home to the timeless 'Only Love Can Break Your Heart' (the best ever cover version?!) and 'Nothing Can Stop Us'.

The album has now been remastered with a second disc featuring b-sides, mixes and five previously unreleased tracks. The album is luxuriously packaged in the Universal Deluxe Edition style and comes with a booklet packed with brand new sleevenotes, images and memorabilia.

CD Reviews

Greatly Improved

Aparato SuperSonico | Orlando, FL | 07/02/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you own the original copy of this CD already as I do, you'll hear the album greatly improved by the remastering. The extra tracks are good, nothing that will change your life, but a nice little bonus. Wait for the price to drop below $20 though. It's a bit expensive for an album that's been around for so long."

Nearly perfect

Adam Thomason | Seattle, WA USA | 09/26/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This has to go down in pop music history as one of the best debut albums ever. 5 stars for the album, but thumbs down for the price. Why so expensive?!?! I've been ordering my British stuff from Amazon.UK because it's usually cheaper and it's just kinda' cool to get it from England. In fact, for a solid $20, you can get this from the UK."
