Lots of further opportunities ahead then. Try the Live album, which includes some of the tracks from this, her first album, plus a great version of Space Oddity and not forgetting The Gulf of Araby.

Thanks, Clive. It's always nice to discover a new artist and then explore their work. This thread has delivered on that for me many a time.
