An inspiring debut of well-crafted adult pop, heavily under the influence of Prefab Sprout, it was originally released by CBS Records in the U.K. in May 1987. Raintown was released in the U.S. by Columbia Records in March 1988. ~ Steve Aldrich

Professional Reviews

Spin (6/88, p.78) - "...a listener's delight...few other acts make such surprisingly timeless, sophisticated, and genuinely emotional pop music these days..."

Mojo (Publisher) (p.117) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Wearing its transatlantic influences on its sleeve, the album also packs classy white soul workout 'When Will You', and the tale of slowly melting love, 'Chocolate Girl', this beautifully ornamented by BJ Cole's pedal steel."
