While she is to be commended for resisting the typecasting that overshadowed the surprise success of her 1978 debut "Water Bearer" and hit smash "Mirrors", like so many others during the mid to late 1980s, SALLY OLDFIELD did so by conceding to the mainstream to her own detriment. While a few well turned lyrics and compositions can compensate for oozy production and arrangements, as in "Silver Dagger", "Marlene" and "Two Different Drummers", and she does offer one minor classic in "Andromeda Rising", even her perennially sweet and versatile voice make most of this femme fatale a bit of a turn off.
