Car Boot Soul

Is noe of the best albums ever reliesed also voted by FHM amd M8 magazien.

What can i say about the album apart from being superb.

My experience with this album. My mate had this no a tape witch i heard and asked him about it and says that it is good but vage info so got the album and i will say. one day came back from a great club night at the archies in glasgow, techno night (lauren gaurnie) great night pilled out bouncing beats, then the end of the night comes in and you just feel so zommbied, got back home and decieded to help with the come down to switch to something mellow wacked it on making a jay playing away in the back ground, and it just seemed to chill out the mind and well after the jay the beats sounded so heavenly.

the main details are below on the album but a must have album and somthing that you dont get sick of or goes out of date it seems like a timeless album.

LIKE your music mellow, seductive and sweeping?
Then Car Boot Soul, the last release from Nightmares On Wax, is the perfect album for you.
Packed with memorable chill out beats and blissful vocals, Car Boot Soul is the perfect album for listening to after a stressful day at work or, perhaps, over a romantic meal for two.
Laid back to the point of being horizontal, Nightmares on Wax have effortlessly created a mellow classic which is as simple as it is subtle and which cries out for repeat listening.

The tone of the album is set from the start with Les Nuits, an enchanting track which eases you into what follows. And tracks like Morse, Ethnic Majority, Finer and Survival only add to the relaxed feeling one gets while listening.
I've often said that if you love Morcheeba, then you'll definitely like Nightmares on Wax. Sara Winton's vocals may not be as to the fore as Skye Edwards, but they are still beguiling and with beats to back up the voice, the package as a whole is great.
Capumcap, the final track, is a suitably upbeat finale, combining the best of what has come before - Winton's voice, Robin Taylor-Firth's keyboards and the bass and guitar of Hamlet Luton and Chris Dankins respectively.
Nightmares on Wax may not be as well known as the chart-friendly likes of Morcheeba, but they are no less essential for chill out fans.
Take my advice, add a little Car Boot Soul to your life.
