About Letters to Cleo - Go!

The Boston quintet had a fine run with a '94 debut that included the hit "Here & Now" and a slot on the Melrose Place soundtrack. A sophomore slump followed. But there's life aplenty in zippy, Veruca Salt-like "Anchor" plus "I Got Time" and "Sparklegirl." If it's any help, singer Kay Hanley can be plotted on a grid between Cyndi Lauper and Gwen Stefani. --Jeff Bateman Amazon.com

rating: 4 Quotequite good cdQuote
I'm conservative with my stars so 4/5 is a very good mark. This cd rocks and fans of letters to cleo should definitely invest if they like any of their other work. Co-pilot and Find You Dead are the best tracks and really rock out! It has good replay value and is an easy listen and doesn't get boring. Good cd, go and buy it folks! September 17, 2007

I have been a fan of LTC since "Here & Now" came out (and became a single because it was on the Melrose Place soundtrack!)
This is my second favorite LTC album, and they keep up the energy through almost the whole disc!

"I Got Time" is a perfect opener! It gives the album a fast start and the quirky lyrics set the stage for the rest of the album ("I've got the strength to move, but....why should I?") Other highlights include the swingy songs "Because of You", "Veda Very Shining", and "Sparklegirl". There are a couple of flat songs, such as "Alouette & Me" and the first single "Anchor". I would have released "Co-Pilot" as the first single for this album; it might have caught on a little better. Plus, it's my favorite song on the album! "Go!" is another great song that deserves to be the title track. It has an energy that doesn't quit and features some great organ work.

Go! is a great album, and fans of "10 Things I Hate About You" LTC and Kay's work in the film "Josie and the Pussycats" (yes, that is Kay as the singing voice of Josie) should give this a listen. You may find that there was so much more to them than just poppy hooks. May 5, 2006

I don't know how many times people have told me that they saw LTC in 10 Things I Hate About You, went out and bought their cd, and it wasn't what they expected. That's because they aren't playing any of their songs. They sound awesome in the movie I know, but it isn't their music. I have been an LTC fan since 1996 and i love them. This cd is almost their best (second only to Aurora Gory Alice). Kay's vocals sound awesome and the guys' playing is great too. You should really check this out!! May 6, 2004

rating: 5 QuoteOne of my favorite female fronted rock bands!Quote
This cd is amazing! A must-have, I never EVER skip a song. Songs like Co-Pilot, I got time, and anchor are upbeat and happy. Alouette & Me is the perfect slow ballad. Kay Hanley is a great singer and the band is good as well. February 5, 2004

Letters to Cleo were a chick fronted alt band from the early nineties that combined elements of shogazing bands like My Bloody Valentine with the crunch of harder alt bands like sheer and the pop sensibility of Jesus Jones. Success proved as elusive For Letters To Cleo as it did for like-minded artists Certain Distant Suns and Eve's Plum. They were pretty good at what they did; the musical mainstream just didn't bite. They definitely sound of their times today, but the album will be a sure hit for fans of the genre or those who are nostalgic for the times. April 7, 2003
