Author: JAMES

Format: Best of

Release Date: 31-03-1998

Details: Product Description Though they've only chartered one US hit, 1994's Laid, James have been huge in England for 15 years, earning fans like Brian Eno. Here's 18 of their best, including Laid; Born of Frustration; Come Home; How Was It for You; Sit Down , and more, including rare single versions and two new songs. Amazon.ca Riding on the powerful wave of Manchester's early 1990's musical renaissance, James' intellectual and improvised approach complemented a heavy dance scene and catapulted the seven-piece into the limelight. "Come Home" and "Sit Down"--James' most lucrative singles--begins this 18 song Best Of collection. Elsewhere, the equally commercial "She's A Star" from 1997 and 1998's satirical "Destiny Calling" prove that James have consistently carved out new territory for themselves and their listeners. Gradually drawing away from the brittle bones of their 1980s incarnation as a provocative but marginalized indie four-piece--as evicted on 1995's "Hymn From A Village"--1991 saw a strengthened James refining their musical designs to the point of subtle perfection on the epic "Sound". Writers of pop songs, devotees of producer's spirit of adventure--and occasionally unwitting victims of singer and lyricist's Tim Booth's sanctimonious and heavy-handed manner--James are a true enigma. Their Best Of is an island of musical intrigue and possibility. --James Littlewood
