Sleepy, sedate, and occasionally surreal, Morcheeba play buoyant trip-hop music rooted in the present but echoing with the past. If the band's CD collection is filled with discs by Tricky, Massive Attack, and Portishead, its vinyl stacks surely include Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, and the Beatles. On Big Calm, Ross Godfrey splattered the group's electronic beats and sultry vocals with a retro-delic rainbow of eclectic guitar lines. Beats and B-Sides expands on the formula, showcasing his virtuosity in a practically vocal-free environment. As a result, even remakes of "Shoulder Holster" and "Trigger Hippie" (called "Killer Hippie" here) glimmer and zing as never before. A bonus disc features the band's first album. Who Can You Trust, a dusky if derivative trip-hop record that, if nothing else, demonstrates how far the group has come in just a few years. --Jon Wiederhorn siehe details
