![Eroica [Special Edition] [2 CD] cover art](http://www.moviemars.com/cdn/shop/products/9016dceae4c15b68d2f44e19932feab8_dd1bb111-7619-401a-9be4-5cbf36a4978b.jpg?v=1697602751&width=1445)
Audio Mixer: Susan Rogers.
Recording information: Sunset Sound, Oceanway; Zeitgeist.
Photographer: Enrique Badulescu.
After the disappointing Fruit at the Bottom, Wendy & Lisa hit a peak with their third album, Eroica. Containing some of the best music of their careers, it also is a perfect synthesis of the dance club beats of Fruit and the well-developed songwriting of their debut. "Staring at the Sun" and "Mother of Pearl" show compositional and arranging complexity that is positively breathtaking. What's more, the musicianship is at a peak, containing some of the best playing the duo has ever done, including a fiery Wendy Melvoin guitar solo in "Turn Me Inside Out." Lyrically, there is more depth as well. "Mother of Pearl," about broken relationships, and "Valley Vista," about a bittersweet childhood memory, have a far darker edge than the lighter material of Fruit. Even the love songs have more of a bite as well. Eroica is a perfect introduction to Wendy & Lisa's formidable talents. ~ Victor W. Valdivia
