big fan of alice's face on the front of this album, looking like she knows she's been included in an ATRL ladies of spiritual jazz rate and she's preparing to read the comments

I remember listening to Open This Wall at some point not long after it came out. Haven't revisited it much and don't remember really what my thoughts were though!

I'll keep an eye out for whatever they do next though regardless.

Sometimes I remember that I compared Four Women to Clara Bow and laugh to myself.

Neither have I, their music kind scratches a VERY specific itch for me that is very mood dependant (like... wanting to work from home in the garden, with a limoncello spritz next to my laptop while it is sunny with 25°C), which hasn't happend in a long time lmao.

I was tempted to buy a Vinyl though, just to support indie artists.

gag

No Duke Ellington in the OP is kinda sacrilegious ngl.

Perfect, updated! Sorry Ornette!

Peggy stays in the "vocalists" (term used loosely) row for now, pending a nice HQ pic of someone else
