Details: Product Description Bring It on poses a fundamental question: how can these young Englishmen make such diverse music, with such a direct emotional link to venerated American musicians ranging from Tom Waits to Tim Buckley, Pearl Jam to Dr. John, Beck to the Grateful Dead? Bring It on debuted on the U.K. charts at #26 in April. The 1st single, "78 Stone Wobble," debuted on the U.K. charts at #44. Press and consumers alike are spreading the word on Gomez, and the buzz is building here in the U.S. [Note: This product is an authorized CD-R and is manufactured on demand]. Amazon.ca In 1998, Gomez burst onto the music scene from out of nowhere and picked up the prestigious Mercury Music prize for their debut album, Bring It On. Hailing from Liverpool, this five-piece band of gawky youths seem to be the very antithesis of traditional rock stars, but their appearance and heritage belie their rich and rootsy sound: their combination of Ben Ottewell's gravely voice and slide guitar conjure up images of the American South, especially on singles "Whippin' Piccadilly" and "Get Myself Arrested". Combining a soul sensitivity with a pop sensibility, Gomez constructed one of the most stunning debuts of the 1990's. -- Carina Trimingham
