Stina Nordenstam - her debut album from 1991

Nordenstam's voice led to early comparisons with artists such as Rickie Lee Jones and Björk. Her early albums, Memories Of A Colour and And She Closed Her Eyes were jazz-influenced with elements of alternative rock. 1997's Dynamite began a more experimental path - most of the album was filled with distorted guitars and unusual beats. A cover album, People Are Strange, followed before Nordenstam returned in 2001 with This Is Stina Nordenstam. In 2000, Nordenstam featured on a track from Danish prog-rockers Mew's second album Half The World Is Watching Me. The track was later re-recorded for the band's international debut Frengers. Nordenstam's 2004 album The World Is Saved continued the path set on This Is..., but presents a more realized sound and acknowledges her earlier jazz influences. Her guest appearances include collaboration with David Sylvian's band "Nine Horses", including tracks from the album Snow Borne Sorrow and the Money for All EP. She also sang on Vangelis' Song "Ask the mountains", she did "To The Sea" with Yello and a collaboration with Brett Anderson.


'This is Goodbye' (from 'And She Closed....) is so incredibly moving. Just thinking about it brings a tear tae mine eye...Genius woman!

Graeme - that's a great track. I also really like the track before it - I See You Again - for trying out the system. The trumpet on it is awesome!

What do you think?

ATB
KK


KK It is one of those albums I just haven't quite gotten into all the trax. Her influences stick out like a sore thumb but she melds them well. Personally I think it will grow on me and become a fav album.

Big Grin, I love this album. I have these two, a JPN mini LP version ,an early German pressing and a regular version. I haven't compared them so, have to do this between the K2 and the MoFi.
