Album Review: Eliza Doolittle

I buy quite a few CDs. Some of them are a bit shit, but that's what you get when you take a lot of chances, musically. However, here's one I got recently that I just can't relegate to the back of my iPod yet. It's Eliza Doolittle's album - a whimsical purchase that is really rather good. Like, leave it in the car as a go-to-album kind of good. Its accessible catchy upbeat tunes will make you tap your feet and put a smile on your face. The big band backing gives it credibility and the chirpy tweeting voice of Eliza herself makes it a decent purchase all round.

Though she's getting airplay for the 'Pack Up' track hidden at the bottom of the album, it's the Moneybox, Mr Medicine and Skinny Genes tunes that do it for me.

So, go buy the album, here. If not for the gorgeous melodies then so she doesn't sue me for using a picture of the album cover. Please. Oh and she's touring Europe at the moment, UK in March/April - go see a show while she's still doing the little venues.
