The girl with everything.
Tracey Thorn - Out Of The Woods
[4/5] After five years of mommy duty, Tracey Thorn drops the nappies and cuts loose on
Out Of The Woods, her air of celebratory joy intoxicating. "Why did I wait?/Don't tell me it's too late," croons Thorn on "Raise The Roof," her hopeful yearning simple and true. The timeless voice of Everything But The Girl keeps life partner Ben Watt on the sidelines, opting instead for fresh faces like techno alchemist Ewan Pearson and members of Metro Area and the Rapture to bring her sinuous melodies to bloom, most strikingly on "It's All True" and the Arthur Russell cover "Get Around To It." With artful polished acoustics nestled snugly against electronic disco bliss,
Woods is the best record EBTG never made, a new peak for Thorn in a career full of heights. She's missing no more.
