Surfacing [B&N Exclusive] [Bone Color Vinyl]

by Sarah McLachlan

Overview

Notes From Your Bookseller

Released in 1994 and just as brilliant now, Surfacing is the Canadian singer-songwriter’s Grammy-winning fourth album. Her opening track "Building a Mystery" sets the tone for the rest of the album, filled with excellent songwriting, beautiful singing, and lush arrangements. Surfacing also features what is probably her most well-known (and most tear inducing) single "Angel."

Surfacing was released as the first Lilith Fair tour hit the road, and Sarah McLachlan benefited enormously from the timing. As the organizer of Lilith Fair, McLachlan was on the cover of magazines across America and Canada, which helped Surfacing debut at number two on the U.S. charts -- a particularly remarkable feat since its predecessor, Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, peaked at number 50. Although Surfacing didn't offer anything new from McLachlan and wasn't a particularly strong consolidation of her talents, it certainly wasn't a bad record and featured several fine songs, including the single "Building a Mystery." ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
