Everything but the Girl (sometimes referred to as EBTG) were an English musical duo, formed in Hull in 1982, consisting of lead singer and occasional guitarist Tracey Thorn and guitarist, keyboardist, producer and singer Ben Watt
The Best of Everything but the Girl is divided between selections from their early records and remixes of '90s hits such as "Missing. Consequently, the album draws a slightly misleading portrait of their career, yet it still functions as an excellent introduction to the band, since it features many of their best songs, including "Apron Strings.
Released in May 1996, the eighth album from UK duo Everything But the Girl is the sound of picking up the pieces and trying to puzzle them back together-if they’ll fit at all. At the time, the UK charts were dominated by Oasis’s lad rock and the Lighthouse Family’s easy-listening hits: two very different examples of historical rehashes. Trip-hop pioneers Tricky and Massive Attack were critical darlings, but their early experimental releases skewed closer to soul and hip-hop. An opportunity to connect the dots and breath new life into pop had long been brewing. Despite the album’s vulnerability, the dialogue that circled Walking Wounded at the time of its release focused on the indie-pop band’s seemingly sudden embrace of the dance floor. They’d experimented with jazz, bossa nova, soul, and orchestral music before, but this youthful new direction catapulted them to a previously unseen level of stardom.
