Her 1992 debut “Great Expectations” lived up to its promise, with the “Sleeping Satellite” single topping the charts, yet Tasmin Archer didn’t quite follow up on that promise, and even though “Bloom” and “On” – her next albums, delivered a decade apart, in 1996 and 2006 – were strong works, further commercial success eluded the English songstress. She didn’t leave music and wrote, together with the faithful John Hughes, pieces for shows like “EastEnders” – but Archer’s fans long stopped waiting for new records from her, so the forthcoming arrival of Tasmin’s fresh platter is both unexpected and welcome.
