Details: Amazon.ca James, clearly reinvigorated by the chart-topping success of their 1998 Best Of collection, are playing to their strengths again on Millionaires. The occasionally abstruse experimental noodlings that have punctuated their career have been left behind, and Millionaires amounts to 12 tracks which all sound determined to make the album's title a self-fulfilling prophecy. All the mannerisms which served to make James the biggest band in Britain in the early 1990s are present: clattering rhythms that might have been designed to serve Tim Booth's wasp-in-shirt dancing, expansively sweeping arrangements (Brian Eno co-produces), and almost annoyingly catchy choruses: "Crash", "I Know What I'm Here For", "Shooting My Mouth Off" and "We're Going To Miss You" are all spiritual--and worthy--successors to "Sit Down " and "Sound". --Andrew Mueller Product Description Tenth studio album, originally issued in 1999, from this great English alternative rock/indie pop act who was deemed 'the next Smiths' back in the '80s. Brian Eno produced the record, which features the singles, 'I Know What I'm Here For' & 'Just Like Fred Astaire'. 12 tracks. Mercury.
