An emotional use of slide guitars, insinuating, sly rhythms and an auspicious use of sparse sound mark the lovely sojourner songs on "The Sweet Keeper." Favorites, "Love Story" and "It All Came Back Today," glisten with intimacy and melody. Take a listen! Seems she fell off the map with this one; who knows why? It's a direct continuation of the eclecticness of "Ancient Heart". Songs for introspection, for falling in love, for writing. Though vastly different, her strong female sensuality is similar to Irish lass Sinead O'Connor's and British siren Kate Bush's work. It's not for nothing that she moved to England when she was 12! Smooth, cerebral and sexy, you'll love her take on the human condition.
Tanita's Sweet Keeper Has a strange & wonderful sound.Something you would miss in main street music.
This is just one of her Little Known Very very good CDs Take the time to check it out. Or any other Tanita Tikaram CD.
It will be well worth your time. ------------ RATSNAKE
