Rachel Stevens – Funky Dory (2004)





Singles Funky Dory and Sweet Dreams My LA Ex are easily the best things on here. Yak Bondy’s name attached to Blue Afternoon raised some hopes and actually is a very pleasant lite-bossa rhythm groove (Yak’s Easy Listening influences again) with a lilting melody that gets under your skin.. The combined talents of Cathy Dennis and Robbie Williams’ buddy Guy Chambers offer the song Little Secret but it’s dull as hell. Not a great album  but worth the 50 pence but her second album is the real deal to keep.

I loved that album!!! It is one I used to play quite often. I have the re-issue version that I picked up in a charity shop for 50p while passing through Berwick-on-Tweed :)

I do tend to only listen to Sweet Dreams my La Ex and Some Girls now though

So I would also add 'Some Girls' to your list of good songs off the album too!
