 Opus // Music Reviews // Saint Etienne - Tales From Turnpike House (2006, Savoy Jazz)
Listening to Saint Etienne made you believe, with every fiber of your being, that true love could be found on the dancefloor, that all of the lonely souls out wandering the city until 3:00am seeking romance and community would eventually find both, and so much more.
