Roxette, Charm School Album Review
By Andy Peterson in Music Reviews on 26 April 2011
Charm School is Roxette's eighth album, but more significantly the first for Swedish duo Per Gessle and Marie Fredrikssen since the latter fought a successful battle with cancer in the middle of the last decade. It was therefore a less than routine release to approach; having more or less span out into a completely different musical orbit since being heavily exposed to their breakthrough album Look Sharp more than twenty years ago, it was difficult to have much by way of expectation.
