She has to be loved (Jenny Morris) (LP 3257)

Jenny Morris Shiver (CD, WEA Records, 1989) ***  

GenreNZ Music, pop 

Places I remember: Hope collection

Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: She Has To Be Loved

Gear costume: Saved Me

They loom large in his legend (The Album Collection playlists): Part 1Part 2Part 3Part 4Part 5

Active compensatory factors: I can appreciate Jenny Morris (and She Has To Be Loved was a great single) but I was never a big fan.

That said, I kept this CD of her second album when it was offered to me, even though it has all the 1989 production values that I hate.

It's a very NZ-centric album with Land Of The Long White Cloud AND Aotearoa appearing on the track listing. It's also widely held up as her best album, so make of that what you will.

Where do they all belong? A curiosity from a long time ago.
