"Exquisite Stereo" is the fourth studio album by Australia rock singer-songwriter and guitarist, Deborah Conway. The album was released in May 2000 via Another Intercrops Production and distributed independently through Shock Records. The album features adventurous, sometimes subversive arrangements.
In a 2010 interview, Conway said; "My Third Husband and Exquisite Stereo had a relationship that was intricately connected. My Third Husband was such a “production in a box.” It barely involved any live musicians. We used some in the end, but the album was mostly designed before that. With Exquisite Stereo, we took the exact opposite approach."[1]
Juice Magazine gave the album 7 out of 10.[2] It was Shaun Carney from The Green Guide's album of the week.[3] Australian Women’s Forum gave it 4 out of 4, saying; "It’s been a long time between hits for Deborah Conway, but this CD deserves more than just critical acclaim. Yes, it is exqusite stereo – Conway’s voice is brilliant and she’s somehow ended up with all the passion that Mariah Carey and Celine Dion had surgically removed. “Radio Loves This” is a stand-out track that radio, surely, will have to love."[4]
