}} ''Enchanted'' is the sixth studio album by the British singer/songwriter Marc Almond. It was released in June 1990 and reached number 52 on the UK Albums Chart〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Chart Stats – Marc Almond )〕 and number 81 on the Dutch albums chart.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Discografie Marc Almond )〕 ''Enchanted'' includes the singles "A Lover Spurned" (a UK Top 30 hit featuring actress Julie T. Wallace), "The Desperate Hours" and "Waifs and Strays" (the latter of which was remixed by The Grid). The songs for the album were recorded at Marcus, Beethoven Street, Sarm West, Advision, and Mayfair Studios, London. Almond was accompanied by former La Magia and Willing Sinners member Billy McGee, and various studio musicians. Almond worked with three producers,〔"Enchanted" CD〕 Bob Kraushaar and Gary Maughan oversaw half of the tracks each, while Stephen Hague produced the lead single "A Lover Spurned". Almond has described the recording process of this album as one of "conflict" between himself and producer Kraushaar.〔Almond, M., ''Tainted Life, the autobiography'', Sidgwick and Jackson, 1999, p336-8〕 Writing in his autobiography ''Tainted Life'', Almond describes how in the recording he wanted "spontaneity and surprise, passion and grit" and that he "wanted to be the conductor, waving my baton as musicians came in and out, brandishing strange instruments that created exotic sounds", whereas Kraushaar "was a technophile, and would have happily replaced everyone with the passionless dependability of his computer if he could."〔 However, Almond concedes that "A year later I played the album and loved it. Bob Kraushaar had produced a highly polished, wonderful-sounding album, which at the time I just couldn't hear."〔 The album was reissued on CD in 2002 having been remastered. The artwork was designed by Green Ink with a cover photograph of Almond and Zuleika by Pierre et Gilles. Almond has stated that it is his favourite album cover.〔 ==Track listing== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Enchanted (Marc Almond album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
