Everything But The Girl - Eden [BYN 2 UK 1984 24-Bit FLAC]

From the student bedsits of Kingston-Upon-Hull, via the indie-pop charm of the original Cherry Red Records and a friend in Weller, Tracey Thorn and Ben Watt's Everything But The Girl developed from a one-off Cole Porter cover into sophisti-pop stardom with a big leg-up from Geoff Travis and his Blanco Y Negro major label spin-off.

Eden was their well received debut album, which spawned the Each And Every One single, however it would be a few more years before the riches were to materialise. With a lush production by Robin Millar, drums from Charles Hayward, additional guitars from Weekend's Simon Booth and percussion from Joao Bosco De Oliveira, Eden is a delicate album, rich and diverse as it swoons between guitar-pop, smooth jazz and latino rhythm. Enjoy.

    If there is a heaven, Tracey Thorn is most definitely in the heavenly chorus. Thanks for this.

    Oh wow, an unexpected big thanks for this. I think their debut album somehow passed me by. I believe I have most of the rest, but have maybe not heard their debut before!
