After a decade-long gap between studio albums, Moyet returned in 2007 with a collection that reminded listeners why her voice had always occupied a rare space between torch song intimacy and full-throated soul. The Turn found her and Glenister drawing on classic European pop sensibility alongside American roots influences, a combination that rewarded patient listeners and signaled a creative confidence that has only deepened since.
The Turn (2007), Alison Moyet's seventh studio album, is reissued on a Deluxe Edition Double CD, featuring the original album, live performances, B-sides and bonus tracks. Written with long-time collaborator Peter Glenister, this album is a unique creation boasting a remarkable variety and exceptional depth that beautifully frames her soulful, blues-inflected delivery. The album includes the singles 'One More Time' and 'A Guy Like You', and features three songs written for the play 'Smaller'.'The Turn is an album of crafted songs. We started building it from a core of chansons, the shapes of Roy Orbison that grow from a gentle place to an impassioned climax. It is about melody and intelligent lyrics. We let it fray outwards from there. It is in turn progressive and reflective.' Alison Moyet.""A welcome reminder that Alison Moyet still has one of the most emotive and intoxicating British voices ever."" BBC Music (2007)""An album worthy of her fabulously expressive voice.""
