Customer Reviews

Total effervescent pop
Since I first heard Boom! There She Was in a club, I've been using this Provision CD almost medicinally at times. Grey day? Traffic jam on a long commute home? Wanna wake up the kids on Saturday morning with musical sherbet for breakfast? Pop in this CD and turn up the volume.

I find the harmonies and the trademark synth pop organ sound on this CD absolutely refreshing. Not to mention the incredible mastering - every drum pops and every baseline throbs. The music jumps out of the speakers.

If you like synth pop, this is a sure shot.

Good Follow-Up To "Cupid & Psyche"
From a Scritti fan- for me this is the second of their two best releases, the first is(of course) "Cupid & Psyche" from '85. Stay away from "Anomie & Bonhomie" whatever you do!

It's no Cupid & Psyche 85...
...but not bad! I remember the day I saw it in the local record store, before Boom was on the radio, and had to buy it! Even though I've got the CD, I still keep that old cassette in the car. Not as many tracks from this CD have found their way onto my iPod, but it's still a respectable CD.
