Melody Gardot - Which albums to buy?


Hello music lovers,

I just came upon Melody Gardot by chance and after listening to the Amazon sounds clips for "My One and Only Thrill".  Really liked what I was hearing.  I recently got into Karen Souza based on a recommendation from an A'Goner as well as Kandace Springs.  Melody's songs seem to have a genuineness to them.  

So...based on song and sound quality, which album (s) should I pursue?  Thanks!

@tooblue   Thanks for opining.  I think I'll get into "My One and Only Thrill/Live in Paris" first and if I like it as much as I suspect I will, I'll check out "Live in Europe".
I do not enjoy her live album, but like every other recording she has.  The live in Paris recording is just disappointing to the point of turning me off to seeing her live.  
Her music reminds me of Diana Krall--well recorded but a bit too polished and lacking soul. My wife loves--me not as much.  I like "Worrisome Heart" the best in terms of the song craft and performance. I wish she would ditch the strings and explore the blues a little more.
