I liked Testimony too, but I REALLY like So Slowly Slowly Got She Up. Different because there's a band with her, but still her wonderful trademark trad-oddness. Not everyone's cuppa, granted, but folk either really like her or really don't, don't they? There's a great track at http://www.folkpolicerecordings.com (A friend of mine used to have a 'test' where he'd play someone Alasdair Roberts and if they didn't like it, he always thought less of them - I feel like that about Elle Osborne!) If you're in London, Bob, go to the gig - for the price of a ticket, you could buy the record AND see her play. Kate x
