Warning: Do not pop this CD in while starting your 30 minute commute pre-caffeine fix. You may just fall asleep at the wheel. Its beautiful, but feels like one long hypnotizing lullaby.
Bunyan is an English singer/songwriter who got her start in the 70s but didn't receive much acclaim until the last decade or so. This album could be the soundtrack to any earnest movie scene of people having VERY SERIOUS CONVERSATIONS in a park (aside from track #4 which conjures up images of girls of the Victorian age playing with their frilly dolls over tea – yeah, that's what my brain did…you may just get that, too).
Second warning: IF you love this album, love it hard. This could very well be her last one.
RIYL: Joni Mitchell
