Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Slow Fade begins with a haunting sea shanty recalling lost love on a Blackpool beach, and ends with a part-spoken acoustic lament returning unexpectedly to the same theme. In between, Miracle Mile main man Trevor Jones fashions a sequence of sensitively performed cameos and story songs that sometimes sound like an alternative Elvis Costello--one who somehow got born in Nashville but hated hat-act country so much that he just had to create his own more heartfelt version. Lyrically, Jones explores the little things that illuminate the big things, and almost every song has at least one line that echoes on in the head, like "I'd rather be ashes than dust" in "Everybody Loved You", or an idea like filling the void left by his loss of faith "with despair and metalware" in "Starwatching". In the last decade or so, Miracle Mile have released a bunch of great albums, of which this is by far the most mature, accomplished and emotionally affecting. --Johnny Black

The Beat
Rewardingly timeless.*****

5.0 out of 5 stars I love it !!, 26 Jan 2001
Lyrically brilliant, melodically timeless, this is a CLASSIC ALBUM!I LOVED "Bicycle Thieves" and "Candids" but this is by far my favorite album of ALL TIME! I urge you to buy one for yourself and one for your very best friend. PS: who is the brilliant harmonica player on "Blue sea white dog"?

5.0 out of 5 stars why oh why oh why!!, 8 Aug 2004
By N. T. Pitman "npitman" (Lincolnshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It is a plastic,homogonised, throw away world where fame is craved more than talent - but even allowing for the crass stupidity of the average member of the British public will somebody tell me why Miracle Mile CD's do not adorn the swedish designed faux-maple racks of the average living room? Wonderful, memorable songs lyrics crafted by a true wordsmith and melodies that grab you and never let go. Miracle Mile fans it is your solemn mission to spread the gospel according to trevor. A truly wonderful album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why is this band unsigned??, 12 Oct 2001
By Philip Duncan "philduncan" (Manchester) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is my first introduction to The Miracle Mile and what a stunning album this is. If you like good melodies and intelligent lyrics, then you have to check out this album. On the strength of a few listens, I've now bought the first two albums and for me there can be no greater recommendation.
