What a voice that man has. Last time I saw Massive attack he came on in a wheelchair with a leg in plaster and still sang like an angel

This man should do an album of Elvis Costello covers.  He's already got the appearance covered.  I guess that's all that matters.

 Spot on

Great voice for sure. Not my favorite Andy comp/album but still pretty solid.

What do you make of it? I listened a few times a while ago and thought it had something. Yesterday I listened to her preceding one on that label and thought it merited the attention.

I enjoy it. Not my favourite, but good. I agree she has something. I like the mix of her quite deep soft sound versus her sense of timing, which is more like an alto player's. I could do without the poems. Hopefully there is more development to come.

How about you?

I remember really enjoying it at the time and thought it sounded quite fresh but maybe a little weighed down by the concept. Just having listened to 'Magdalena' I think I prefer that but to be fair it's a while since I've heard 'Reciprocity'.  Time for some attention.

As you say, it's early days for her recorded career so one to keep an eye on, I think.

Now I'm reliving the late 90s and watching an Erik Truffaz stream from Ronnies.
