I step out of lurkerdom for a while to say thanks Marty for this
recommendation. As someone who "discovered" The Ditty Bops only very
recently, this is more of this great music, and a very welcome addition to
my collection.
And now that I'm talking about favorite releases, I must confess that one of
my favorites this year, hands down, is God Help The Girl, both the album and
the Stills ep. These songs are magnificent, and the voice of Catherine is
sublime. I was an OK fan of Belle & Sebastian, but these songs and
arrangements are top of the top.
