Oh, A Girl Called Eddy is GREAT, a really unsung record. Richard Hawley produced that record, and you should definitely seek out his solo records if like that one.

I'm excited, I haven't heard a lot of the ones you mentioned, Bob.
Interesting, though, I feel the way about Feist as...I think it was
James...feels about Winehouse. Affected vox, blah songs, doesn't really move

Another woman I LOOOVE is A Girl Called Eddy.
I heard she had a falling out with her producer (forgot his name...Richard
Hawkins, was it?)
so I hope she gets up and gets another album out.
Best,
KF
