    Always liked Dave Stewart, his solo stuff, even the record everyone hates he did with tom Petty & the Heartbreakahs. This sounds real Stewart-y basic rock, doesn't it?

    Annie, of course, is without peer.

    Someone needs to write up the TOurists on popdose...do us a popdose guide or something!!!!!!!!!!

    Well, I worship at the altar of Eurythmics but I must say I didn't care for their early stuff as a duo. The first album left me cold. But once things started to gel with the second album, I was hooked. I had enjoyed a couple of Tourists tracks so I knew Annie was an emerging Goddess. And that's exactly what she turned out to be.

    I think for the most part Eurythmics got better as they went along. Trying different styles, collaborations, etc. I thought the live performances they gave after their reformation were incredible. They were in full possession of their powers and comfortable with who they were.

    Viva La Lennox !

    spot on. In The Garden is an amazing and superb collection of songs. I feel the Opening track "English Summer" and the closing track "Revenge" are standouts as well. They bookend this collection beautifully.
