S6E331 - Cocteau Twins 'Treasure' with Miki Berenyi
from That Record Got Me High Podcast · host Rob Elba
This week's guest, English singer/guitarist Miki Berenyi (Lush, Piroshka, Miki Berenyi Trio), brings us a record by Scottish alternative band - and for a time 4AD labelmates of her band, Lush - Cocteau Twins and their stunning 1984 release 'Treasure'. Evocative, ethereal, and anchored by singer Elizabeth Fraser's otherworldly voice, its sublime, almost alien beauty is hard to describe. But we try. Songs discussed in this episode: Strange Fruit - Cocteau Twins (John Peel BBC session, 1983); Ladykillers - Lush; Needles and Pins - The Searchers; Cherry-coloured Funk, Wax and Wane, Ivo, Lorelei, Beatrix, Persephone - Cocteau Twins; For Love - Lush; Yes - McAlmont and Butler; Pandora (For Cindy) - Cocteau Twins; Everlastingly Yours - Piroshka; Amelia, Aloysius - Cocteau Twins; Leaves Me Cold - Lush (Peel Session, 1990); Cicely, Otterley, Donimo - Cocteau Twins; Light From A Dead Star - Miki Berenyi Trio (Recorded live during Paris Popfest, 2023
