Lust

Lust is the third album by Ambitious Lovers. It was released in 1991 through Elektra Records. It was the band's final album. The band's cover of Jorge Ben's "Umbabarauma" was a minor dance hit. Production The album was produced by band member Peter Scherer. Critical reception Trouser Press wrote that "Lust has enough of that unique Lindsay guitar squeal to keep the old-timers interested, but traditionalists might be disappointed that Arto’s turning into an out-and-out crooner — and a damn good one at that." The New York Times thought that the album "works with the idea that the subversion of mass-market tastes can be achieved by slipping in noise, odd sounds and other things under a shiny, pop veneer." The Spin Alternative Record Guide wrote that it oozes "sensual, hypnotic funk and samba."
