Hi everyone,

Laura's new album appears to be out in Europe (to my suprise, I found it at my local music store here in Finland last friday). I've been listening to it intensively since then, and I'm glad to say it is a great great record! Highlight of the album is "Bees", an absolutely wonderful song, and so sad and moving performance. It really takes my breathe away. In addition to the "Bees", "Old Downtown" and "Khaki & Corduroy" are my favorites (all 3 are her own compositions).

I wish I could make the trip to England this summer and see her live again but I'm afraid it won't happen. I still remember those lovely two concerts at Borderline in late 2002 I had a pleasure to attend.

BTW, a demo of "Letters" was recorded by Lucinda in a recording session in NYC in 1982, and it is unreleased (I don't know if she ever made another demo version of it). I've a copy of it somewhere, I could upload mp3 of it to somewhere if interested.

Hey Markku,

There was a mistake by the Finnish distributor and 4 copies made it out early. You were one of the lucky ones.

Ah that explains it. Well, good for me as you say.

(don't be hard on the distributor for their mistake, they are real music lovers and very good at importing this sort of music to the country).

Looks like I'll have to cancel that trip to Helsinki then.
