Title: ~ dig deeply ~ make it raw ~ make it real ~ cocteauuuu
Product review: WOW. If you're like me, you NEED this. CD1 highlights- tracks 1, 2, and especially "Hazel" are essential whether you were into CT's first rough albums or not. CD2 highlights- "Volaine" has gone from blah to stun-material! Check out the cut-throat majesty of "Seekers Who Are Lovers", one of the best Cocteau songs of all time. I can't tell which is better (bbc or original). We're talking some serious six stars here, with only five possible. (If I let it rule me, I'd give this whole thing a fiver based on that emotion alone.) "Half-Gifts" here is also necessary. While obviously not all tracks are probably going to be stellar on a BBC collection, this compilation is required for CT lovers such as myself. Drawbacks: uneven representation of work over the years (wish some other songs appeared); Liz sings in a range too high on some of the later ballads featured on these outtakes. COCTEAU TWINS FOREVER .... WAAAAaaaaaa i never DID see them live :'(
