Notes: Personnel: Mark Nicholls, Paul Farr (guitar); Michael Rose (saxophone); Eddie "Tan Tan" Thornton (trumpet); Trevor Edwards (trombone); John Ellis (keyboards); Clive Hunte, John Waddington (bass instrument); Jonny Wimbolt Lewis, Paul Powell (drums). With her much-buzzed-about debut album, ALL RIGHT, STILL, singer Lily Allen, the daughter of veteran British comedian Keith Allen, presents a bright, buoyant collection of pop songs that are smartly counterbalanced by her often-biting lyrical edge. On the breezy, immediately catchy "Smile," the sultry-voiced Allen takes pleasure in the woes of a former beau, while the bleakly upbeat urban ode "LDN" recalls an unlikely fusion of the Streets and Norah Jones. Though part of Allen's charm is in her day-in-the-life, U.K.-specific observations (see the punchy "Knock 'Em Out"), ALL RIGHT, STILL has enough sass, verve, and melody to appeal to a wide international audience.
Rolling Stone (p.66) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[She] writes shambling pop songs, rooted in ska and rap, with cheeky rhymes....Lily Allen's an original." Rolling Stone (p.110) - Included in Rolling Stone's "50 Top Albums of the Year 2007" -- "[E]leven memorable songs..." Spin (p.82) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "ALL RIGHT, STILL is all about the stories behind the stories..." Entertainment Weekly (p.130) - Ranked #8 in Entertainment Weekly's "Top 10 Records Of 2006" -- "[A] collection of irresistible pop songs imbued with both smarts and street cred." Q (p.118) - Ranked #57 in Q Magazine's "100 Greatest Albums of 2006."
U.K. singer Lily Allen is the daughter of the notorious British actor/comedian Keith Allen, and her father's sharp sense of humor is reflected in the music on her highly acclaimed 2006 debut full-length, ALL RIGHT STILL. Following the runaway success of the single "Smile"--which hit the top spot on the U.K. singles chart--the album is blend of pop-reggae, hip-hop, and U.K. R&B delivered with witty lyrical barbs and a chart-friendly pop sheen. While her brash outspokenness has made her a media fixation in England, her eclectic party jams have positioned her as something of a British answer to Gwen Stefani.
