商品の紹介
| Featuring, oddly enough, a pre-fame Thomas Dolby here and there on keyboards, Girls at Our Bests sole album, Pleasure, is an underrated delight, tempering the sometimes harsh edge of the earliest singles to an equally passionate and entertaining approach not afraid to be calm here and there. With Harper now firmly settled into the drum seat, the quartet touched on everything from Siouxsie and the Banshees arty edge to Gang of Four aggro-funk and full-on power pop catchiness, and did so brilliantly. Evans voice was at its considerable best at many points, sometimes so light that it was hard to catch what was being sung, but often able to deliver her sometimes wry, sometimes sunny, but always smart sentiments just right. The hilarious rip on capitalist dreams "Waterbed Babies" and the sly "China Blue" are two particular winners. The sprightly, full-bodied music didnt lack for excitement either, and unlike the rote exercise that much of indie rock later became, theres still an exploratory, honest freshness about the arrangements. Call it the surfy leads Alan throws in here than there, the very intentional disco quotes on "Heaven," or trying out subtle tempo shifts at points for variety within a song, but theres plenty of random joy to be had, down to the guest clarinet on "Fun-City Teenagers." Excellent as it was, Pleasure didnt have the bands defining moment, the absolutely brilliant debut single "Getting Nowhere Fast," which gained posthumous fame via a cover version on the the Wedding Presents debut album. Sharp, short, and perfectly catchy down to its sudden edit ending two minutes in, its one of the highlights of turn of the 80s Brit rock. Happily, that track, plus all the other studio cuts of the bands career -- including a delightful cover of the traditional "This Train," aka "Bound for Glory" -- appeared on some reissues of the album. ~ Ned Raggett |
