Always a joy to visit a real record shop and Waterloo Records fits that bill. Most recent visit was like a walk in the candy store. I picked up:
- Nellie McKay – Get Away From Me
- Hem – Rabbit Songs
- Sufjan Stevens – Illinois
McKay; wow, what a talent. Great songs and arrangements. Perfect NYC music. Where will she go from this album?
Hem; country music from Brooklyn, NY. Take that, Nashville.
Sufjan Stevens; lives up to the hype, IMO. Philip Glass meets Brian Wilson meets I dunno who else.
