Should sell-out instantly.

Mine is only an mp3 download but sounds incredible. I know the recording is 5 years old, but as of now, it ranks as my best purchase of 2010, thanks to your recommendation here, Gordon.

I was cruising her out-dated site yesterday and wishing I could acquire some of her other recordings in a digital format. Not unlike Brett Anderson, a real gem found through this forum.

I agree Jeff.
I'm assuming you prefer digital? If not then you can buy the limited edition lp here and pay with paypal and ship internationally (I think)

Excellent news my friend. It is a stunning album.

This album imho perfectly encapsulates the question..Do you listen too music or feel it?

I only have digital (no TT) and enjoy the instant gratification of downloads. My ears no longer know the differences enough for me to be concerned if it is disc or download and most of my listening is done through a 120gb portable hard-drive (400 albums and only 1/3 full) and iTunes from my laptop, headphone (digital) output to my Beresford dac.

Just downloaded a copy of The Third and the Mortal "Tears Laid In Earth" which according to Wikipedia includes Kari on vocals. It is up next.

That is the Norwegian band where Kari started. It may be a little bit too Industrial Funeral Gloom for you but let me know.. Winker

PS-For anyone thinking of buying...imagine the love child (in a good way) of a thinking mans Evanessence and Madonna (Ray of light era).

If she is singin' I will probably be okay Winker
Read somewhere she was an Opeth fan, something like "Damnation" with her on vocals would be just fine.

Alicia de Larrocha : piano

Enrique Granados : Goyescas - Danzas espagnolas


Enrique Granados : Escenas romanticas - bocetos - Cuento de la juventud


If you don't have already those recordings, run to the shop and grab them Big Grin

You can find the 2 of them in one box :

Vladimir Safronitsky to go with Isaac Babel's Red Cavalry short stories. Both highly recommended.

Speaking of Funeral Gloom Winker, perhaps my favorite Dylan album I have heard. I will never forget the electric guitar fill Bob played live on one of those songs at the Grammys the year that album won.

Thanks for the hint, this album I do not know. But I will be looking for it. If I've found it, I'll let you know what I think of it.
