SPARKS The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte (2023 UK/EU limited edition 14-track LP pressed on 180-gram black vinyl, the critically acclaimed 26th studio album from Ron and Russell Mael — a spectacular and characteristically idiosyncratic release that continues the band’s astonishing late-career renaissance. Bursting with sharp wit, lush melodies, and genre-blurring arrangements, the album includes Mona Lisa’s Packing, Nothing Is As Good As They Say It Is and Leaving Late Tonight.
Housed in a deluxe matte picture sleeve with subtle spot-lacquered title treatment across the top, complete with a printed lyric inner and an original ticket stub from their triumphant Royal Albert Hall performance on 29th May 2023 tucked inside. The sleeve displays minimal shelfwear and the vinyl appears barely played – a Near Mint example of this superb return from one of pop’s most enduringly creative duos)
TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATION
The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte marks Sparks’ first release on the venerable Island Records label in close to five decades, following such classics as 1974’s landmark Kimono My House, highlighted of course by the indelible hit single ‘This Town Ain’t Big Enough For Both Of Us’. The new album is described by Ron and Russell Mael as a record that is “as bold and uncompromising as anything we did back then or, for that matter, anytime throughout our career.”
The album includes such instantly intriguing new musical vignettes as ‘Mona Lisa’s Packing, Leaving Late Tonight’ and ‘Nothing Is As Good As They Say It Is’, songs which once again display Sparks’ seemingly ceaseless ability to craft complete, intricately detailed stories within perfect three-and-a-half minute pop masterpieces. Both characteristically timeless and unequivocally modern, The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte once again affirms that, after more than a half century making such masterpieces, Sparks remain inimitable, ingenious and, as ever, utterly one of a kind.
