I’ve been aware of her since she was the background singer for World Party. And that ages me, I know.
Also her first album was The Lion and the Cobra, NOT the one with Nothing Compares 2 U, as the media keeps reporting. And that first album is pretty much an under-appreciated masterpiece.
She was so mistreated by the media and the world, man.
Thank you for setting her music in a contest for (slightly less old) people like me (not that I’m young).
I just listened to her debut album and you are right, this is extremely good stuff. I was a bit surprised that it came out in 87, the production reminds me more of a more spacious trip hop record - so far it seems to have aged very well.
Thanks again for recommending this, you made a person which would probably have never listened to that do it with headphones on a stormy evening - guess that’s the most you can do for a musician you adored.

Such a fucking shame :(
