This list always brings out the ignorance in me. I'll google the CD, but my computer speakers are screwy.... one of you give me an idea what genre of music he does? I'm, er, totally unfamiliar with the guy..... Julie Krueger ========Original Message======== Subj: [lit-ideas] Re: Freddie Mercury Music Prize Date: 9/6/05 11:54:33 P.M.

Indeed it is. Thanks to Donal I am familiar with the CD and it is one of the most haunting I've heard in a long, long time. I absolutely love it and haven't been able to listen to anything else for awhile though many await me. There was a big spread on Anthony and the Johnsons in this past Sunday's NYT Magazine. Thanks again to Donal for leading me to the light.
