Redemption. I loved her first album “Eye to the Telescope”, with that classic last track “Black Horse and the Cherry Tree” (the solo version that she did on Jools is still a stand out performance).
Then she did “Drastic Fantastic”. I hated it.
Tiger Suit, is brilliant. Go get.

Amys’ second album is out today, and it rocks.
Look out for the deluxe version with a full live CD.

A very interesting release from Astrid.
A real mix of fast and slow tracks.
Excellent stuff.

Front women from the band Texas, Sharleen really belts it out on this fulsomely produced album from last year.
Big stuff.

These two have a new release out in May 2008 so I have been revisiting their first workout together from 2006.
The comparison with Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazelwood is impossible to ignore, with Marks growling wavering deep vocals and Isobells flotsam softness, but this album goes to much darker places than Nancy & Lee ever did.
A great album that I never know when to put on in its entirety, but all the tracks here made it on to my various playlists.
The new album is called “Sunday at Devil Dirt”… Sounds like a barrel of laughs.
I can’t wait.
