And here is a link to the sweet and low-key introverted sounds of IOperry (she quotes Elliot Smith as an influence and I clicked into her site from Holly Williams site - see below):

Heh, I have only recently discoverd how much I like Holly Williams - the grand daughter of Hank Williams (who ALSO quotes Elliot Smith as an influence):

Anyhow, there is more - more to say, more to write about, CD's that artists have been giving me that I want to review - and I am trying to find the time to get it all into words and links and thoughts.

More later....
