collects the early singles, notably

Alfie é un gruppo di Manchester (guidato da Lee Gordon) che suona un folk-pop orchestrale e leggermente psichedelico ai limiti tra Flaming Lips, Magnetic Field e Belle And Sebastian. If You Happy With You Need Do (Twisted Nerve, 2001) contiene i primi singoli, come Bookends, It’s Just About the Weather, Umlaut, 2 Up 2 Down.
A World in Your Ear (Twisted Nerve, 2002) perfeziona nella impressività e nella eccentricità, sempre mantenendo un ottimo livello di alta-fedeltà orchestrale (A Word in Your Ear, Cloudy Lemonade).
