Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Maybe their best.......2005-03-01

Just a great album. Definitely their hardest rocking cd, not a bad song here, except the "bonus" tracks which aren't up to the standards of the rest of the cd. I'm a huge fan and like everything of theirs, but this and S.F. Sorrow, in my opinion, are their best.

3 out of 5 stars "She Don`t" + Solid Rock!.......2004-07-05

"Cross Talk" was the Pretty Things` second Warner Brothers album, originally released in 1980

The opener "I`m Calling" is a solid new-wave type rocker, showing that Pretty Things were trying ( and able ) to keep up with the musicals trends of the late seventies/early eighties.

The album continues in the same vein with solid rockers, none of them particularly memorable until the melodic "Falling Again" with it`s driving Peggy Sue rhythm.

The stand-out track is the half acoustic "She Don`t", a fine song that would have suited the voice of Brett Anderson of Suede - fine lead-guitar break on that one too.

All three bonus-tracks are great, in fact much better than some of the original tracks. Especially "Sea About Me"

Conclusion: A good solid album; among the most hard-rocking Pretty Things albums.
