Cranes Loved

180-gram audiophile black vinyl. Loved is the third album by the British band Cranes, released in 1994. Siblings Alison and Jim Shaw formed the band Cranes back in 1989. They recorded several successful albums, including the 1991 Wings Of Joy and 1994 Loved. The album Loved combines elements of alternative rock, shoegaze, dream-pop, and darkwave. Their gothic elements made a return, while they retained the feeling of their previous album Forever. It was another artistic experience, with nicely orchestrated and constructed songs.
