Title: Slide Guitar?
Product review: I ended up buying this album on sale and am so glad that I didn't pay full price. I am an Erasure fan from way back. I own all of their albums (look at my other reviews, I defended them during their Loveboat days) singles, etc. I am sorely disappointed in this album. I thought Other People's Songs was better than I expected and the Boy EP was better than I expected but this whole album is largely bad. It lives up to its acoustic apellation but the use of slide guitar and the reworking of the songs makes them largely into new songs with the same lyrics and singer. I think that Andy's voice is shown in a great light here. My disappointment is with the music. I couldn't recommend this to anyone unless you like old school country (not even then since I like Johnny Cash but not this).
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
