Chloe Liked Olivia is the third and final album by Two Nice Girls, released on Rough Trade records in 1991. The label closed down and the band broke up shortly after this album was released.[1] Chicago Tribune critic Dan Kening rated the album 3 stars (out of 4) for its "affecting, eye-opening music worth seeking out",[2] while Mark Jenkins of The Washington Post thought it was "barely distinguishable from most other easy-listening adult-rock" and that the band had been "more fun when they're naughty."[3]
