Rockferry was a great Soul/Pop record. Duffy's good girl image combined with the albums heartfelt tracks made for the perfect companion piece to the darkness of Amy Winehouse's 'Back to Black'. Unfortunately second effort Endlessly is a bit of a misfire. There are no standout tracks like 'Warwick Avenue' or 'Mercy' and the lyrics are one dimensional & overly syrupy throughout. Listening to the album it feels like the producers didn't really know what sound they were going for. On 'Well, Well, Well' (the first and only single) the music has more of a dance feel but it doesn't quite work.
Overall perhaps the biggest disappointment is that Duffy never sings at full power as she did on Rockferry tracks such as 'Serious'. Her unique voice was the core of what made that album so appealing but on Endlessly she does not display the same range. A few of the songs have their own subtle charm such as the Kylie Minogue esque 'Lovestruck' and string accompanied 'Breath Away' (which is quite good) but overall the album is forgettable and unlikely to have you hitting the repeat button. One for completists only.

It seems to have been an almost endless wait since Duffy's debut, the sublime `Rockferry', for her follow up album. Finally, here it is. But just what is it exactly?
With an original sound that reminded one of Lulu or Dusty Springfield in their prime, Duffy has tried to develop and alter her style a little bit. For me the slightly new direction doesn't work too well. She has moved away from the Phil Spectorish soul ballad backings that suited and framed her voice to a more modern sounding production that she almost has to fight against to make an impact. It doesn't quite suit her voice and does not provide as enjoyable listening experience as Rockferry. The best track on the album for me is `Don't Foresake Me', which follows the earlier style. There are good points here though - Duffy's vocal delivery is disitinctive and excellent, and there is some very good songwriting. It is just let down a bit by the choice of backing and production.
All in all the tracks sound a bit bland and samey, to my ears there are no real standout star tracks. They are all ok, and listenable, but no more than that really. With a bit more focus and a sympathetic production this could have been great, but not an album I will be returning to that often I think.
In all three stars. It's not terrible, but it doesn't really shine for me.

What went wrong? On her first album Duffy delivered a strong set of songs and showed an ability to sing soul with an interesting and distinctive voice. She appeared to be a real talent with a promising career ahead of her. This album is a real disappointment and she has been badly let down by her writers and producer. The style has moved towards boppy, dated, middle of the road pop that is supposed to appeal to who? The songs are weak and forgettable, and her voice appears to have gone up a register and has lost nearly all of its interest and soul. Some of the songs are truly awful; My Boy, Lovestruck and Girl for example bop along plastically like rejects from a Steps album, and Duffy sounds like she has been inhaling helium. The slower ballads are better but only relative to the rest of the album and never reach the standard of her debut. I really hope that her career survives this disaster and she gets another chance with a better backroom team.

Misfiring follow up.
Moulded by Bernard Butler (Suede), and with such writers as White and Jimmy Hogarth, Rockferry was a heartfelt, home grown tribute to a faraway era. Read more

Used item
Some new CD's arrive without the cellophane cover, which this did, but the case was scratched and the CD required cleaning indicating its previous use; but I bought as new!

To me, it is not a patch on her earlier Duffy CD. The music does not come alive and she is very low key on several of her tunes. Read more

OK
It was always going to be difficult for Duffy to follow her debut album and maintain the originality. There is nothing wrong with slickly produced pop album. Read more

I like this album. It is different from Rockferry, moved in a slightly different direction, but still a good album, after all Duffy is that amazing voice.
