I've been enjoying this album too especially the first 5 tracks, but it trails off a bit at the end for me. I think someone described her as a voice like a 7 year old Bjork which sounds weird but works for me.

Others I've been enjoying are

Drive By Truckers - Decoration Day, courtesy of Audiobill
Nirvana - Box Set (Bill again) a bit patchy but nice
Iron and Wine - Our Endless Summer Days
Bloc Party - Silent Alarm
Oh and Davey's recent comp and as a result Wayne Robbins has just jumped to the top of my wishlist with a great Neil Young sound. All in all a nice comp Davey I also liked the Harold Budd disc very soothing.

Cheers
Mike
