The Lion and the Cobra - Sinead O'Connor
Review created: 09/06/06(updated 09/06/06)
the Lion and the Cobra is one of those albums that I love so much I can't understand why everyone hasn't got it! Admittedly, part of it's appeal is tied to a time and a place personal to me and it was a bit of a slow burner.. but once I'd warmed to it I couldn't get enough of it so, years later bought the CD to replace the tape I already had. It's sound is melodically raw, bass-heavy and somewhat dark and it's essence feisty. The tunes are quite good for shouting along to if you feel like getting some (man-related!) aggression out. Mandinka of course is a classic but every tune is a winner. It's just too short!
