CREATIVE MYSTERY WoW , what a Journey !

Keen Little Neon like a meditation, the mind relaxes while somewhere else something works, cleaning away the dust and cobwebs, and suddenly all that's left to do is listen

one hour later, you've traveled the world with Amelia Earhart, as Amelia Earhart

Laurie has always pushed the boundaries of what music can be, and this is no different. It's sublime music that is more than music, storytelling that is more than a story.

Thanks for the beauty and inspiration. Favorite track: India And On Down to Australia (feat. Anohni).

chinookboy It recounts Amelia's final flight in a musical style that is whimsical and beautifully scored.

atomicgnome Another stellar effort by the Queen of Difficult Music! This record is quite accessible love the multi-disciplinary feel. Bravo!
