Fresco's press sheet from BMG.
From the opening strings of Just For You to the last broken beat of Avalon FRESCO is another classic M People album, again delivering their timeless virtues of structure, performance and passion. It is also another musical advance for a band that will never be content with the status quo.

Interview from EpicCenter - 1999.
M People have always been proud to wear their soul on their sleeves. As a guiding force of the '90s global club movement, the Epic recording act has consistently won critical praise for their ability to infuse elements of old-school funk and R&B into the youth-driven house music idiom.

Interview from Latin Percussion.
Nowhere is the music scene more competitive than in Britain. Bands release incredibly strong albums, yet disappear from view. Musicians must have to have an extra something to gain attention and hold it.

Interview from Muse.
M People remain the only act to really cross from the hedonist world of club culture to the commercial world of Top 10 hits with ease. Now with the release of "The Best Of M People", it may be time for the fabulous four of clubland to take it to another level.

Interview from NME - 22 November 1997.
Social issues and a Roxy Music cover? Yes, M People have decided to get serious on our ass with new album, 'Fresco'. But it's not all gloom 'n' doom... Just ask their percussionist (don't use any long words though!)
