This should have been the late singer's breakout album

Kirsty MacColl died in a boating accident in 2000. I first heard her work around that time when someone played "In These Shoes?" for me. I bought the album --TROPICAL BRAINSTORM, of course -- and found it absolutely delightful. It so happens that two songs on it are what my wife and I call "our" songs: "Head" (not what you think, you dirty bird), and "Good For Me." They are the most romantic songs I've ever heard. I played the album for my wife (she wasn't my wife at that time), and we realized, as we listened, that those songs perfectly described our feelings for one another. So. A very personal album for me. It's also funny as hell in places -- I dare anyone to listen to "In These Shoes?" and not crack up. RIP Kirsty MacColl.Read full review

Tropical Brainstorm is a No Brainer

Great musical talent she was. Best album of hers unfortunately her last as she saves a youngster from an out of bounds watercraft , forfeiting her life but not her memory.

Great music

Featured in "Kinky Boots" - the song "In These Shoes?" is the best. This has already been borrowed by several people to listen to.
