Fabulouso The material is every bit as good as "Brothers In Arms", and the recording quality is very close to that outstanding effort. Can't say enough about this dynamic, sonic, audio gem. Every song is imminently listenable and the lyrics are quite strong. The better your audio system, the better this material sounds played at volume.
3 1/2 stars -- not bad at all!
I'd suggest getting this one before Love Over Gold or Making Movies (their two best ones), otherwise Communique will seem like a letdown. It's not their best, but still worth getting. Portobello Belle is very nice.
