Description:

Originally issued on Hut Records in June 2000, Alone With Everybody was
eagerly anticipated, as it was Ashcroft’s frst recordings since the demise of
the group he founded and led, The Verve – This re-issue replicates the 2000
UK frst pressing and is available on audiophile 180g double vinyl in gatefold
sleeve
Opening the album with its string overture, “Song For The Lovers” signalled Ashcroft’s
intent immediately.
Intensely melodic, anthemic, it picked up exactly where The
Verve’s 1997 multi-platinum album Urban Hymns left off.
Lifted as a single, it reached
No 3 in the UK and spent most of the summer on the charts.
Recorded at Olympic Studios and Metropolis in London, big, bold and frequently
beautiful, Alone With Everybody raced to No 1 in early July; it played to all of Ashcroft’s
strengths, memorable hooks, catchy choruses, beats subtly infuenced by dance
music; the brass-blazing bold hoedown of “Money To Burn” was the album’s second
single; other highlights include the ballad “Slow Was My Heart”, the upbeat joy of
“C’Mon People (We’re Making It Now)” and the refective, string-enrobed “You On My
Mind In My Sleep”.
