Hi everyone - WOW !!!!!!!
This is me finally emerging from Aeriel.... at last
I have been so immersed in the whole album fro months and months I
have been doing nothing else! (well I have actually but apart from
when the radio is on I have played nothing but the album. Its the
only thing been in my car CD player since November.
I have to say though - I ripped and burned the CDs to one disc - and
failed to copy over Bertie or Mrs Bartallozziololololi.
The part of the disc with Sunset, Somewhere in Between, Nocturn and
Aeriel is nearly worn away. I also love Pi and How to Be Invisible
(just so fantastically good in so many ways), and A Coral Room - is
haunting as well as beautiful. Nice to Have just Kate and a piano
again. Bit like the demo tapes - but produced!!!
I may say a LOT more later - but now I need to go back to my family -
and Kate!!!!!!!
Bye
