Hi Tim,

Bought this album based on your recommendation and like her other album, Tigerlily is also very good, not sure i like it quite as much as Ophelia at the moment but I'll give it a few more listens

They are different albums, but each has its own qualities - which one I favour tends to match the mood I am in. Late night burner is Ophelia, middle of the day music would be Tiger Lily.

Not sure if you have Spotify, but this I think is a very fine album. Superbly recorded by Charlie Peacock (The Civil Wars) with some of the most emotive lyrics I have heard for awhile, especially the song Gone Away From Me.
Its currently my top album of the year and most definitely a 10/10 for me. I have played this more than any other record this year - Holly is Hank Williams granddaughter. I may not be everyone's cup of tea as its quite raw and bare in places, but the song-writing and musical composition is some if the finest I have heard for sometime.

Well chaps, some of your 10/10 CDs I bought recently and to be honest only a few have been my cup of tea so to speak, so they are up for grabs in themusic for sale section - so I can buy some more!

I like it a lot, but many people seem to hate it!

Yes

l cannot work that one out, some of the most personal lyrics/singing l have heard, still music is subjective.

I've only heard one track off this CD, on R3 this week, during a terrific downpour on the M4 somewhere near Newport. The overture to the 1812, rearranged with a choir. How it goes! I actually wooped...

And a review I agree with on Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-revi...owViewpoints=1

Produced after the age of vinyl so I might have to buy another CD

Can't stand it personally, utterly tedious. Does Aerial refer to the washing powder? "Washing machine, washing machine"
