Product Description

Description
Before the 2003 collaboration, L'AVVENTURA, Dean Wareham and Britta Phillips had previously worked together as singer/driving force and bassist, respectfully, for dream rock band Luna. Years later, the pair would join in marriage. The striking Phillips appeared in movies in the 1980s. A longstanding partnership, a likely burbling romance, and motion picturesavvy only begins to explain the surreal and gorgeous set of songs that is L'AVVENTURA. While echoes of Luna are inevitably present (particularly in Wareham's trademark staccato lyrics), the unearthly tunes tend toward the more orchestral and cinematic with wisps of French pop, and they range from the stirring "Night Nurse" to the cowboy balladry of "Knivesof Bavaria".

5.0 out of 5 stars A Collectors Item, 29 May 2005
By Mr. Paul Millsom (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is Luna plus extra magical ingredients. O.K. I am biased. I love Britta. Her amazing sexy vocal delivery (e.g.'Your Baby' and Wareham's compositions break new ground. Contrasts abound. 'Night Nurse' sets the scene for 'Ginger Snaps' vibes and wind-up intro. The Luna like 'I deserve it' and the wonderfully repackaged 'Moonshoot', from the Galaxie 500 era, with a perfectly glazed violin score are difficult to follow. The album takes on a downbeat mood, lingering sad melodies, slow tempos follow. 'Random Rules' comes to the rescue and Dean's guitar work in the bridge reminds you whose on stage. Nothing loud, nothing rushed. It's a collector's item.
