Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

A story of two halves, a tale of two distinctive eras made whole by the subject matter’s intense drive and personality welding them together, connecting them by the sound of a voice so powerful that the listener cannot but help but be entranced by the siren of a Californian call, of transferring an energy from surfside punk pop to a queen whose majesty is reflected in the second half of her career and so expertly, so boldly envisaged in the release of the box set Belinda Carlisle: Decades – Volume 2.
