Product Description

Chronique amazon.fr

On avait remarqué chez Nina Persson, la chanteuse des Suédois Cardigans, une sensibilité toute personnelle. Et son premier album solo sous le nom de A Camp montre combien cette voix pure s'accommode bien d'un autre environnement, avec ici un quatuor tout acquis à sa cause. Et c'est Mark Linkous, le surdoué leader et seul maître à bord de Sparklehorse qui, lui, se trouve aux commandes pour assurer la production. Une première expérience pour l'Américain surdoué et un résultat assez éloigné de ce que propose Nina avec les Cardigans, qui ne sont pas séparés pour autant. L'ambiance évolue entre psychédélisme post-Beatles ("The Same Old Song") et song-writing plus contemporain dans une veine parfois Suzanne Vega, avec aussi une note d'humour ("Frequent Flyer"). Nina Persson sait en outre combien un coup de gueule soulage et, au moment de l'éclatement, elle a toute la conviction nécessaire ("Hard As A Stone"). Une ambiance légère, des guitares souvent feutrées, ce premier album d'A Camp est de plus un très beau voyage au cœur d'une femme. --José Ruiz

5.0 out of 5 stars bluest eyes of texas..., Mar 24 2004
This review is from: A Camp (Audio CD)
anyone who remembers the cardigans fondly or the haunting ballad 'the bluest eyes of texas' as performed by chloe sevigny in the film boys don't cry will definately want to check this cd out. even though i didn't pay the import price for my copy, i can almost understand why someone would shell out nearly thirty bucks for this virtually unknown gem. nina perssons is the underrated & ultimately talented voclaist from the band the cardigans. many of us remember the cardigans for their hit back in the late nineties called lovefool. to say that nina's solo work resembles anything quite like lovefool would be ludicrous as a camp is far more diverse & complex than any music i remember hearing from the cardigans. in fact, i'm almost tempted to order or listen to some of their older work now after hearing her fabulous work on a camp. nina perssons has a mellow, sweet voice which will appeal to many different types of music fans out there ranging from the young pop acts of today like michelle branch to lesser known women like a lori carson or karen paris from the innocence mission. persson's voice is as pure & innocent as one could ever hope on nearly every track here from the opening to the very end. this album may take a few listens for most people not familiar wioth persson's style or solo work but i guarantee you'll be hooked in literally no time. there are so many tracks to recommend that i hardly know where to start. there you have it! don't look for any particular favorites to try out but rather enjoy the album in it's entirety. you'll be glad you made the choice to purchase this album after you hear how amazing it truly is for yourself. although a camp is a delicate confection for an album, perssons draws upon only the genres or musicians/ writers to make her material stand out above the rest. nina encorporates jazz, pyschedelic undertones, & country western just to name a few. even the pickiest music lovers are bound to find something they like on this cd. give it a whirl today!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure form of Art, Jan 26 2004
By 
Bogdan A. Bagdasarov "Dahni" (Moscow, Russia | Seattle | Los Angeles) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Camp (Audio CD)
I've been a fan of the Cardigans ever since their first CD release in USA and when i've heard that some band members were doing solo I was very anxious to hear them. I think that Nina's CD is art in its purest form. Each song is carefully put together like a collage to form a trully unique piece. I found my self experiencing different moods as I listened to each of the songs. Some other very good songs were actually not released on this cd. Songs such as "Charlie Charle", "My Misery is my Mystery", and "What the hell are you crying for?" but dont worry you can still hear these songs. For those of you who don't know Nina has a special website for her CD its : http://www.acamp.cjb.net/. There she has an option of listening the unreleased songs. I hope this review has helped you in some way.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most beautiful voice, Aug 4 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: A Camp (Audio CD)
I knew this album during my stay in Paris in winter of 2001. The French edition "Marie Claire" raved Nina Persson's voice " la plus belle du monde".I bought this CD from Amazon .com as soon as I returnd to U.S. It has remained one of my all time favorites since. Nina's voice is just like an angel's, so pure and innocent. Listen for yourself.
