I cannot stop listening to this CD.
My first exposure to Imogen was in the group Frou Frou a couple years ago. Then I heard her song "Hide and Seek" and was sold. I can't pick up enough of her stuff. But this CD in particular is amazing. It's the kind of music you listen to that has you finding new things everytime you do. There are so many layers to her music. And it has a kind of magical charm to it... it glows. That's the best I can come up with. Somewhat cheesy, but there really is this sort of effervescent quality to it.
A guy at West Music (same home sort of feel as Dick Blick... if these guys go under, I'm through with it all) and I now speak of her everytime I go it. One day he said "You've got to have more of her stuff" so he gave me Frou Frou's "Details" CD. (Just like when Dick Blick offered me coffee). And now it's a cornucopia of Imogen.
I guess her shows are amazing. She reproduces all of herself solo. Amazing. So if you hear she's anywhere near you, let me know... I'll be taking a road trip.
