I revisited Throwing Copper a little while ago this morning and I know why I love it so much ! In 1994 I thought music was in a bit of a funk so I started watching Music Television more to try to pick up something new and fresh ! White Discussion song came on by Live and I was immediately hooked !
The album was a compositon of fresh new sounding music...melodic tracks with a different sounding vocalist !!!! This album has to rate up there with one of my favorites !

The album cover is a replica of a painting by Scottish artist Peter Howson - Sisters of Mercy....did it influence Leonard Cohen's song title and the band Sisters of Mercy ?
Album was produced by Jerry Harrison of Talking Heads and peaked at number one in Canada, Australia, the U.S. and New Zealand ! Surprisingly it only reached #37 in the UK(maybe it's hard to crack the UK market if you're not a Brit ???).
US Billboard had it at number 60 on their 1990-1999 best album list.
All Music rates it at 4.5/5.
