    You'd have to go a long way to hear a better synth pop album, no matter what decade you examine.

    This is a fantastically arranged and conceptually exquisite record, and as much as it feels like anathema to say that a contemporary pop highpoint has sprouted below the surface, in the case of Class Actress it's true.

    Harper recreated herself as a sultry electro diva ... it's a role she plays with panache on this full-length debut. [Dec. 2001 p. 125]

    If there is one main flaw you could attach to Rapprocher, it's how Harper sticks so slavishly to the template laid out by her dance pop mentors.

  1. Were there any justice in this world and this album would have done so much better commercially than it actually did. Glamorous, simple and daring, Elizabeth Harper stepped it up a notch, despite every critic seems to like her previous EP 'Journal Of Ardency' better. Keep listening and growing, bit**es! Expand
