Duffy returns with her soulful voice and style in her second studio album. This album in contrast to the debut, "Rockferry", was produced mostly by an American production team, but the fidelity to her trademark sound has remained intact. "Well, Well, Well", the album's fourth track is creating a buzz. The Welsh singer collaborates with Philadelphia soul gurus, The Roots, It's a more up-tempo track. Most of the album, however, is the cool, piano, horn, and acoustic guitar driven sound listeners have come to love. The vocals are clear and resonating. Just about every song, with the exception of the aforementioned collaboration with The Roots, is drenched in that beautiful melancholy. Duffy's music is timeless and ornate, like a classic black and white film. Most of the tracks are love songs, but they are also about longing, regret, and the overwhelming power of new relationships. A brilliant sophomore effort, indeed...an appropriate follow-up.
