Product Description

Description
'London Conversations' is the definitive best of collectionby Saint Etienne - one of Britains's most enduring and endearing bands of recent times. Often described as a sixties-inspired 90s dance band, Saint Etienne encompassed many influences and delivered sublime and soulful pop songs - from the anthemic 'He's On The Phone' and 'Nothing Can Stop Us' to the timeless classics 'Only Love Can Break Your Heart' and 'Like A Motorway'. Underrated but critically acclaimed, this timely compilation highlights the band's contribution to modern British pop.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cool., 18 Feb 2009

By	D. Boni - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The mastering on this compilation is very well done. This has injected new life into the tracks. All in all an essential purchase for any fan. It's also a darn site more interesting and varied than a lot of the acts who end up in the charts today (lame hip-hop tracks / cheap X-Factor pop divas & wannabes / boring and indistinctive guitar bands). When is innovation and effort going to be represented in the mainstream media again? Variety is the spice of life, after all. Whatever your opinion on this particular band, you certainly can't accuse them of lacking ideas or refusing to take a risk.

5.0 out of 5 stars Engaging, 5 April 2009

By	Mr. J. Fulton (united kingdom) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Far too many gorgeous inspired tracks to comment on , i never tire of hearing these songs even though i already own most of them , its a nice well chosen compilation in one handy package , the music is a total delight , i always get the feeling saint etienne regard music as a sacred force ,always flowing harmoniously with each inspired idea , never controlling or trying to be smart which is why they do what they do so well , as always music at its best .... opt for the dvd version ,two audio cd's and a great dvd very nicely and carefully put together , loads to read when you are listening to the music , just as it should be , great value for money ...

5.0 out of 5 stars Another best of ..., 20 Sep 2008

By	C. Taylor "Darlocol" (uk) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love Saint Etienne with a vengence but can I really be bothered to fork out for another best of compilation. Of course I can and so should you (if you have any musical taste whatsoever). Infact buy two and give one to a stranger. Music this fabulous shouldn't be kept a secret.
