Synopsis

Album Description
Saint Etienne is a British pop/rock band led by songwriters Bob Stanley and Pete Wiggs, and fronted by vocalist Sarah Cracknell. Since the group's original inception in the early '90s, they've racked up a string of indie hit singles that were driven by deep club beats ? encompassing anything from house and techno to Hip Hop and disco, including 1990?s hit "Only Love Can Break Your Heart," and their summer smash "Nothing Can Stop Us" in the following year. The Trip created by Saint Etienne includes records from their DJ bags over the last decade ? Chicago soul, TV show themes, rare psychedelia, and continental odds and ends ? with a second CD of atmospheric magic. Taking you through the musical journey of their lives, previous The Trip albums created by Dirty Vegas, Tom Middleton, and most recently Tim ?Love? Lee have delighted music fans everywhere. Picking an eclectic selection of music, from tracks they love, tracks that have influenced them and gems that they found over the years, the result has met with critical acclaim each time. The Trip by Saint Etienne is another fantastic journey for the series ? hypnotic, stylish and funky.
 

CD Reviews

Mind Blowing
Erik Talkin | Santa Barbara, CA | 12/22/2004
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Saint Etienne reveal their sixties pop roots by pulling out a mind-boggling collection of nearly 50 (generally) obscure pop records. Every bargain bin has been pillaged to come up with an onslaught of mainly psychedelic and pop records. If you liked ST. Etienne's cover of 'Who do you think you are?', then there are a bunch more like that. In fact there's just too much. If you listen to the whole of the first CD through at high volume without a break, your brain will explode. Groovy baby. The second CD is mellower and features the Godlike genius of Scott Walker."
