Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
Best Kept Secrets is a collection of the finer points from Lamb's career to date--an even smattering from their four albums--their self-titled debut, Fear of Fours, What Sound and 2003's Between Darkness & Wonder. Although geographically miles away, Lamb were an integral part of the Bristol sound with their music sitting somewhere between Portishead and Roni Size. "Cottonwool" opens the anthology, and rightly so--the brooding double bass, ethereal vocal and broken beats are a perfect intro to what they're all about.

Best Kept Secrets is in chronological order and highlights the slight changes in direction that occurred in each period. Tunes such as "B-line" and "Bonfire" are more rhythmic than their fractal predecessors yet dirty in comparison to the smooth, almost soulful "Stronger" and "Please" from their latter years. Although the album gets comfier and more worthy of the "chillout" tag as it progresses, it's clear that two things remain consistent throughout: Rhodes' vocals remain beautiful and Barlow's production always does enough to keep it left of centre. --David Trueman

Rating: - amazing!
The first time I heard Lamb, was a couple of months ago when a friend of mine played me Gorecki (beautiful song!) I was so impressed with the song I ordered 'Best Kept Secrets' and it is the best purchase I've made in years. If you like the kind of alternative music, e.g. Massive Attack,Portishead etc then this album is for you. There's tracks that are slow, and a different kind of romantic. Then there's tracks that are a bit drum and base-like. There is everything on this album, it makes me cry, it ... Read More
