Description:
Saint Etienne's 2005 album is arguably their most mature musical statement to date. An album with a concept, rather than a concept album, the titular Turnpike House refers to a fictional block of flats whose residents provide the characters for the songs that are a microcosmic portrait of metropolitan life. A beautiful, considered album with a nod to Pet Sounds and featuring David Essex, it demands to be listened to as an album and one which perfectly balances pure pop and sensitivity. The album, home to singles A Good Thing and Side Streets, it has now been remastered by the band and expanded to two discs. The 16 bonus tracks on CD2 include 8 previously unreleased tracks and other rarities from the album. This new version comes in luxury Deluxe Edition packaging with a booklet featuring sleevenotes by Travis Elborough and Jeremy Deller and lots of previously unseen photographs.
