Brian, what's the Natalie Merchant album like? 

Brian, I streamed it a couple times before purchasing. I like it, but it seemed a bit themeless with a few various styles the first time I listened all the way through vs her other releases. Interesting, that feeling has gone away the more I’ve listened.

The LP is really good, but, after the initial spin, it does sound different from the streaming files. Obviously. There are some things I like much better on the LP, but have to admit, the digital files also have some strengths. 

Overall, I like it. It’s Natalie, and as you know, I’m a big fan.
