This album is nothing like Hats or Walk Across The Rooftops. Those albums were beautiful and sad but this one is uplifting, Church on Sunday music. If you haven’t heard The Blue Nile then you’re in for a treat but be prepared for Paul Buchanan’s heartbreaking vocals. You could argue this album isn’t as good as the last two but when the group spend seven years on a record then you really have to give the music time to grow on you. This album shows another side of The Blue Nile equally fantastic and lovingly made. This band is something very special and all their albums worth buying.

A force of nature 23 Nov 2004
Format:Audio CD
I had found The Blue Nile on a sampler some years ago, bought "Hats" and a "Walk Across The Roof Tops" and kind of marked them down as "good but needs time and space to enjoy them" and filed them away at the back of the CD collection. A few years later my partner of the time bought "Peace at Last", and if there's one album that ever hit an emotional chord, it is this one.
There's not too many words that do justice to "Happiness". It is extremely uplifting and heartbreaking at the same time. But that's the beauty of this whole CD. The whole thing is like a freeze frame on someone's life. The songs lend themselves to looking at what might be, is everything going to work out for the singer?
If you have not got this in your CD collection then buy it. It forms a great reference point for what one group can achieve and allows you to compare how other artists treat the same issues. Outstanding!

Mellow, not blue. 30 Jun 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
This is a wonderfully mellow experience altogether! The opening number "Happiness" is one of those songs that immediately chills you out and takes you somewhere a whole lot calmer. Acoustic and rhythm guitars are prominent during the stronger first half and drive some great tunes, "Love Came Down" and "Body and Soul" being standouts. The second half is perhaps a little too wondering, but nothing ever outstays its welcome. As for those awaiting Blue Nile's fourth album, they should meanwhile check out band member Nigel Thomas's "Quiet City - Public Face, Private Face", a very impressive debut that features involvement from most of Nile's other members

A slight dip in quality
I'm a huge fan of The Blue Nile, but this album was quite a departure from their sublime first two albums 'A Walk Across The Rooftops' and 'Hats'. Read more

Time for another from Blue Nile as good as this one
Easy to forget how old this LP is now but yet somehow it doesn't sound particularly dated - not to these ears anyway. Read more

Peace at last
Title song is great, but the best song in the collection, one of the best I know, is "Family Life". Beautiful, sad, fragile, magnificent. Read more

Mature and graceful third album by the worlds greatest band
The Blue Niles third album came as a bit of a shock after the bruise blue opulence and full blooded romantic vistas of the glorious "Hats". Read more

A guide to adult life
"A Walk Across The Rooftops" is a story of teenage infatuation and the discovery of dating. "Hats" tells the tale of heartbreak, growing up and finding the right girl. Read more
