FN312 Able Tasmans - Store In A Cool Place (1995)

The New Zealanders Able Tasmans wear their influences on their down-under sleeves; their fourth album (and first in the U.S.) Store in a Cool Place blends British folk melodies, garage-band riffs, and Jefferson Airplane-style male-female harmonies. (Even their wistful love songs have American pop-culture titles like ''Mary Tyler Moore.'') What could have been derivative is, instead, a glorious sonic whirlwind‚ one of the most bewitching rock albums of the year. And talk about wistful: The Tasmans disbanded shortly after releasing it. - EW.com‚
