69 Love Songs

Description:
69 Loves Songs was the breakthrough album for Stephin Merritt's ensemble.
"Music journalists are not like everyone else. Apart from their unfortunate personal habits, they have a tendency to get excited by the mere breaking of usually sensible rules.
For example, while general audiences legitimately complain that an album with wildly differing styles is confusing and is evidence that the artist can't make up his or her mind, a critc lauds the variety and experimentation. A triple album is usually way too much material for any sane person to absorb but a critic can exclaim at the breadth of material available.
With that in mind, be warned when I tell you that New York singer/songwriter Stephin Merritt (who is the Magnetic Fields and The 6ths and several other bands) has given us exactly what the packaging promises - three CDs of just under an hour each, 69 songs in total and all about love in some way. It's one of the most entertaining albums you will (probably not) buy this year." - Bernard Zuel, Sydney Morning Herald.
