OH, I've read it. The discussion you mentioned was a reason I decided to finally dive into her catalog.

I love the new album. I haven't fully digested it yet. I'm in the step-away-for-few-weeks-before-revisiting-it stage.

I wish her old albums (up through Stories..) weren't so rare & expensive to procure on vinyl

Feels kinda samey to me. Take a breather on the politics, polly jean.

But it is awesome to hear some of her older stuff with the fuller band arrangement (later in the vid). Also, I didn't know that Alain Johannes was touring with her:
Excellent. She's one I've always dreamt of seeing live & assumed it would never happen. I know some friends who tried for tickets to her LA shows this time around & got nothing. Maybe one day..

Finally seeing her live tonight. I'm a little embarrassed to admit I didn't know Alain Johannes & Mick Harvey were in her touring band. I'm even more excited for the show now.

I finally took a spin through both offerings for Is This Desire? and that shit sounds amazing. Gonna try to grab all this on vinyl in good time...REALLY looking forward to Stories and Uh Huh Her re-release.
Wife & I have gotten each one as they’ve been released. Great to finally fill that gap in our record collection. Glad I didn’t go crazy buying original pressings for hundreds of dollars apiece as I considered a few years back. They all sound incredible. Highly recommended. Hoping to get lucky & grab a signed copy of Stories when they put it up on the website.

I was just watching her Rock en Seine concert from 2017 and it's pretty amazing how she looks and sounds exactly like 20 years ago. I hadn't really paid attention to it before, but she is a really good singer too. I mean she hits all the notes and sounds live exactly like she does on albums. Of course they could have done some edits afterwards (it was an official concert release) but I don't think that's the case here.

PJ rules. Is she touring any time soon? I could use an excuse to fly the Tasman. Wonder if Higg's treehouse has a vacancy.

I really like some of her demos more than the album versions, like The River and This Mess We're In.
