I have the lastest L.A. album, and have listened to it, but I don't
remember any of it.  So I must not have DISliked it, but it doesn't say
anything FOR it, either.  My faves are still the early ones, from Big
Science thru US I-IV.  What I liked about Strange Angels was that it seemed
to be her journey into "normal" songwriting and singing -- I could imagine
covering "Hiawatha" with just vocals over acoustic guitar.


(And hi, jhno!  I'm eagerly awaiting that Radial software release!)
