Then I heard a song on RTE lyric some time ago: interesting. Later a found a cheap CD (tiny voices) and I bought it: very interesting. But I couldn't find much more in the local record stores. Until last weekend. I was in Liverpool with a record stores list in my hand, and one suggested hot spot was Skeleton Records, in Birkenhead. Wonderful store, plenty of records and CDs. After more than one hour digging in the crates I see his name in the used CDs section; and not just one CD, but many. It's now or never I thought, and I bought 5 of them (I think I left a couple there). So this is what I am actually listening in these days: Joe Henry

Big fan of Joe Henry, I have four of his albums on vinyl, not easy to get.
