Review - :
{^Fragments of Freedom} was released in 2000 and not received very well. If critics and fans would have been able to gaze into a crystal ball a couple of years in the future, they would have understood. With the benefit of hindsight, consider {^Fragments} the prototypically disjointed transitional record that saw {$Morcheeba} shifting focus from {\trip-hop} to a more well-rounded mix, as {^Charango} completes the journey that may have been bumpy, but with a sweet destination. Once again, guests are brought in to augment the band's sound; {$Lambchop}'s {$Kurt Wagner} returns to help the {\electronica} act with meditative lead vocals that fit into the film noir soundscape that is {&"What New York Couples Fight About,"} and {$Pace Won} adds his rhymes to two tunes -- the title track, which harks back to the {\trip-hopping} salad days of the group and sees the rapper taking the lead, and {&"Get Along,"} where he makes a more subtle contribution on a dreamy cut that sounds like something from the '70s if they had more modern equipment back then. However, the best is {&"Women Lose Weight,"} which sees {$Slick Rick} sound completely old-school with {$Morcheeba}'s {\pop-soul} groove letting his typically clever rhymes and dark comedy dominate the song. Though the appearances of outside musicians is a positive move overall, the remainder of the disc as done by the three members of the group stands up on its own; {$Skye Edwards}' vocals are sultry as she makes all diva-like on lead track {&"Slow Down,"} the string-drenched melancholic {&"Otherwise,"} and the lazy, tropical {&"Sao Paulo,"} and overall her performance makes {^Charango} the band's best record in some time, and for anyone not a purist, it's possibly {$Morcheeba}'s best ever. [Also released with a bonus disc which includes instrumental versions of the entire album.] ~ Brian O'Neill, All Music Guide
