Sinead O'Connor - Lion and Cobra - Vinyl Record LP 180g Import
Sinead O'Connor's 1987 debut album "The Lion and the Cobra" is a raw and powerful work that announced the arrival of a major new talent on the pop music scene. With her striking voice, fierce independence, and evocative lyrics, O'Connor immediately distinguished herself from her peers. The album's standout tracks include the anthemic "Mandinka", the haunting "Troy", and the darkly romantic "Just Like U Said It Would B". O'Connor's mix of rock, punk, and traditional Irish music created a unique sound that was both edgy and soulful. "The Lion and the Cobra" remains a classic of 80s alternative rock, and a testament to O'Connor's enduring influence on popular music. The U.S. cover differed from the European release, as it was felt a more subdued pose of O'Connor would present a "softer" image. 180 gram audiophile vinyl SIDE A 1. JACKIE2. MANDINKA3. JERUSALEM4.
