If you like her contributions to This Mortal Coil and The Hope Blister,
why not search out a 1993 album on Interscope/Atlantic called "The
Kindness Of Strangers" by H.O.P.E.  Louise collaborates with Craig
Armstrong and Peter Arnott with various different producers stepping in
including Nellee Hooper and David Stewart.  Ivo is thanked in the
credits and while it skews toward a more calculated glossy sound,
Louise's vocals are amazing and the album is enjoyable.

1993, Interscope/Atlantic, 92241-2
