Rumer - Boys Don't Cry (2nd Hand Compact Disc) | Audio CD
Description
The second studio album from singer-songwriter Rumer is a diverse collection of covers, paying tribute to some of her favourite 70's songs.
For those that haven't heard Rumer, her voice is uncannily like that of Karen Carpenter . . . just as beautiful.
Covers include tracks originally released by artists such as Leon Russell, Issac Hayes and Bob Marley, as well as opening track "P.F. Sloan", penned by Jimmy Webb.
This special edition includes four bonus tracks.

External Reviews
"Boys Don’t Cry posits Rumer as a throwback, albeit a glorious one, to a bygone era . . . Fabulous stuff." - Louis Pattison.
"Boys Don't Cry showcases Rumer's gentle and sweetly soulful vocal style that is clearly perfectly suited to this material. In fact, for anyone already familiar with her, it almost goes without saying that Rumer sounds a lot like soft pop icon Karen Carpenter. However, rather than coming off as a copycat, Rumer always sounds like the real thing . . ." - AllMusic.
"But this is the labour of love whose genesis predates her debut. And it really does sound like another season in her soul." - The Guardian.
