1000 Fires

Amazon.com
"Let me kiss it and make it better," purrs the X-rated vixen turned mainstream actress as she attempts (on "Control," the first single) to get a rise out of the techno audience. With writing/production from Babble (ex-Thompson Twins), the KLF's Ben Watkins and Mike Edwards of Jesus Jones, the music is sleek, robotic, and primed for clubbers who'll view her as the camp descendant of disco queen Amanda Lear. "Outlaw Lover" is worthy of Mitsou and the serious tone of "Father's Field" tells us not to treat her too lightly. --Jeff Bateman

Tracks:

Control
Fallen Angel
Good-N-Evil

Talent?.......2007-05-03

For those reviews that say she has talent, please point out where. There's not anybody in this world who could not to the synthesized modulated vocals on this type of garbage, including my golden retriever.

Excellent...in spots.......2007-04-16

Traci Lords is trying really hard to gain a main stream career, and she definetly deserves it. This cd is about half good and half bad. When it's good, it's excellent, when it's bad, it's embarrassing. Too bad the whole cd couldn't have kept up the energy of the first two tracks and satyed away from that awful song "Good And Evil". You deserve a good hard wake up slap for that one Traci!

Don't let her past fool you.......2007-04-01

Don't let her porn past fool you. Traci Lords can hold her own when it comes to the music buisness. 1000 Fires is her debut and an excellent one at that. Control, the first and best track, is a perfect example of techno/rave music. This is easily better than anything Jennifer Lopez and most other Hollywood singers can put out.

EXCELLENT!.......2006-07-22

I HAVE ALREADY BOUGHT THIS CD NUMEROUS TIMES AND BOUGHT IT AGAIN RECENTLY. EACH TIME I BUY IT SOMEONE WOULD WANT TO BORROW IT AND NEVER RETURN IT BECAUSE IT WAS THAT GOOD! ITS A CD THAT NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU LISTEN TO IT, YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN. MY FAVORITE SONG LIKE MANY OTHERS IS "CONTROL". ITS AN EXCELLENT SONG TO WORK OUT TO! "OUTLAW LOVER", "DISTANT LAND" AND "FLY" ARE OTHER FAVORITES!

TRACI LORDS REALLY SHOWS THAT SHE IS NOT AFRAID TO EXPRESS HER FEELINGS AND SHOW OTHERS WHAT SHE HAD GONE THROUGH IN HER PAST.

Hands Down one of the best cd's I ever purchased unlistened........2006-06-05

Back in 1995, when I was a member of BMG or Columbia, I got a cd of the month that intrigued me because of who the singer was: former porn queen Traci Lords (who I knew from her Melrose Place fame). I kept the cd and it was a wise choice! Every song on here is a little gem. It has a Techno vibe that is enjoyable, not annoying. Every song is charming, danceable and 5 stars. The exception is "father's field" while an EXCELLENT song, it's difficult to listen to more than a few times without crying.

My favorites on this cd are: I want you, Control, Say Something, Fly, Fallen Angel and the cheesy Okey Dokey.
