Product Description

Belle And Sebastian: Stuart Murdoch (vocals, guitar); Stevie Jackson (guitar); Sarah Martin (violin); Mick Cooke (trumpet, bass); Chris Geddes (keyboards); Bobby Kildea (bass); Richard Colburn (percussion).
For a band with such a modest, homespun feel as Scottish cult heroes Belle and Sebastian, the utilization of a big pop producer like Trevor Horn could easily have been a tragic mistake. Instead, it proves to be a stroke of brilliance. Rather than doling out the kind of overblown mountains of sound he's heaped on artists like Seal and Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Horn simply expands the B&S palette in a completely organic, extremely effective manner. The arrangements are more fleshed-out than usual, the textures more varied, and the overall sound a bit more sprightly and sunny. All this is to the good, however, as the band's unerring melodic sensibility and gently quirky lyricism remain joyfully intact. The interaction of Belle and Sebastian's trademark twisted-twee songcraft and the effervescence of Horn's production makes DEAR CATASTROPHE WAITRESS one of the group's most instantly appealing albums.

'03年発表｡ﾌﾟﾛﾃﾞｭｰｽにﾄﾚﾊﾞｰ･ﾎｰﾝ起用ってどｰよと思いつつ聴いたら全然あり｡喪失感を爽やかに歌う彼ららしさはそのままに､生き生きとしたﾊﾞﾝﾄﾞ･ｱﾝｻﾝﾌﾞﾙや流麗なｽﾄﾘﾝｸﾞｽが穏やかで繊細なﾍﾞﾙｾﾊﾞ･ﾜｰﾙﾄﾞを色鮮やかに演出､ﾋﾞｰﾁ･ﾎﾞｰｲｽﾞに匹敵するﾎﾟｯﾌﾟ･ﾐｭｰｼﾞｯｸの金字塔が誕生だ!

ﾄﾚｳﾞｧｰ･ﾎｰﾝﾌﾟﾛﾃﾞｭｰｽ｡ｲｻﾞﾍﾞﾙ脱退後の作品でｺｰﾗｽが聴け無いのが寂しいかな｡ﾄﾚｳﾞｧｰの毒っ気も欲しかった所｡裏を返せば彼もﾋﾞｰﾄﾙﾏﾆｱなのでﾎﾟｯﾌﾟな面が最大に出された作品でしょう｡詞は曲とは裏腹にｱｲﾛﾆｰたっぷり｡｢Wrapped up~｣は60s'ｻｳﾝﾄﾞﾁｯｸな切なき名曲!!

ベルセバにはハズレってものがないね。このアルバムは曲のアレンジがうまい。アンソニーのブルースが好き。
