Marie Lloyd - The Coster Girl In Paris Every Little Movement Has A Meaning Of Its Own

Review by Guillermo Pardo

Marie Lloyd's album, The Coster Girl In Paris Every Little Movement Has A Meaning Of Its Own is a delightful collection of songs that captures the spirit of early 20th-century music. With her powerful voice and charismatic personality, Lloyd takes listeners on a journey through the streets of Paris, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era.

The album features a mix of classic tunes such as "I'm One of the Ruins That Cromwell Knocked About a Bit" and "A Little of What You Fancy Does You Good," as well as lesser-known gems like "Oh! Mr. Porter, What Shall I Do?" and "She's a Lassie from Lancashire." Each song is performed with Lloyd's signature style, blending humor, pathos, and a touch of bawdiness.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Coster Girl in Paris." The song tells the story of a young woman from London who travels to Paris to find love and adventure. Lloyd's performance captures the character's sense of wonder and excitement, making the listener feel as though they too are wandering the streets of the City of Light.
