Tricky's Maxinquaye is one of those all time great albums! The mix of hip hop with complete mellow chillout music is blended together with absolute precision. You never tire of the songs here, and each time you listen to it you love it.
Black Steel is one of my favourites, along with Hello is Round The Corner which are just excellent. The female vocals on some tracks with Tricky's vocals on others, and both together are a welcome diversion to keep the tracks different throughout. if you don't own this album then you really should!
