Product Description
Amazon.co.uk
Appropriately named, Morning Dove White is an album of songs to be listend to after: after getting home from the club; while recovering the morning after ; or after going through a heavy session with Primal Scream's Screamadelica.Originally branded as ambient-pop thanks to Dot (formerly Dorothy) Allison's ethereal vocals, One Dove's songs actually have a bit more substance than the label would imply, and the very title of the album's second track, "White Love (Guitar Paradise Mix)"--not to mention it's My Bloody Valentine-wail of guitars--should've put the very idea to rest from the start. Produced by Andrew Weatherall (who did so much of Screamadelica) and engineered by his co-horts from the Sabres of Paradise, MDW is a trippy, heady mix of guitars, keyboards and vocals that sounds ahead of its time even five years after its release. --Randy Silver

I initially bought this album when I was a teenager back in 1993 after my boyfriend recommended it. Listening to it again almost 12 years later, it still makes me shiver. It brings back so many happy memories, and yes I'll follow the herd and agree that it does sound a little like Primal Screams 'Screamadelica', but that's not a bad thing as it's another great album from the 90's.

Already more than 10 years old, Morning Dove White still manages to sound both timeless and modern. Andrew Weatherall's heavily dub-influenced production contrasts beautifully with the orchestrated strings and Dot Allison's whispered soprano (the best thing she's ever done). A great album.

Dots voice is enough to make the hardest of men cry, coupled with some of Weatheralls usual high production makes this one of, if not my favourite album of all time. One of the little treasures that should be heard by everyone!

1993?
I can't believe this is 18 years old.It still sounds as fresh and beguiling as it did when I bought it originally.It almost certainly makes it onto my "desert island" list. Read more

Atmosphere, beats and bliss
I agree that this is one to own. I hadn't heard it for a few years but when I played it recently I was so overcome by how good this one-off is that I was compelled to seek out all... Read more

what the world has forgotten about
This album is a classic. The track called Breakdown is worthy of a place in the music history books. This is a mellow album, yet with raw emotion unlike any other act around. Read more
