well, well, well....... i haven't listened to a damned thing yet but adore this piece of work already. it is so beautifully produced. not since the golden days of LPs with gate-fold sleeves, have i dwelt on how lovingly the whole thing is put together. i think ms mitchell truly gives a damn about her audience to give so much (was there ever any doubt). how easy it would have been, and acceptable to us all indeed were she to have delivered the usual CD, a few pictures in a little plastic case.
but this.... i dont intend to listen to the music in full until i get some peace and quiet to do so. instead, i placed CD1 into my computer - not noticing that the speakers (good ones) were switched on - to look at the picture gallery i knew to be there. a wonderful 'walk-through' accompanied by 'refuge of the road'. oh god, what a lovely thing. i dearly love this. i am so impressed. les (london)
