I bought this on a bootleg cassette from a man at Speke Market, it was such a bad copy I could barely hear it through the hiss.

Man my dad really loved this album in 1992.

Can't believe how long it took me to listen to this gorgeous album. I mean, it opens with two amazing singles, why wouldn't the rest of it be great
I believe that love alone might do these things for you

listening to annie's covers album medusa from 1995 this morning. it's hilarious! i genuinely like "whiter shade of pale" for its pomp melodrama anyway and this rendition goes full bore in that direction. also opens with "no more i love yous" (originally by the lover speaks). has ilm ever weighed in on that potentially lost classic?
anyway if you ever wanted to hear "i can't get next to you" with a flamenco guitar solo, i have good news for you friend!
(also for clarity: the album really isn't that good but like most covers records, it's a fun curiosity. and yeah, the blue nile song is what prompted me to check it out. not a bad version; pretty faithful to the og.)
