I did not love the first album - it wasn't offensive but didn't leave much of an impression. That said, I think Virtue is definitely a step in the right direction. The production really helps her - I get a bit of Dar Williams meets Vienna Teng from her. Cassandra and A Woman, A Woman, A Century Of Sleep are my favorites at the moment. This actually has a chance to make my end of year list (although it's been a really good year for music all around so who knows).
Agree that Virtue is a better album but I do love them both. I am certain it will make my 2011 top-ten although I'm not sure where on the list yet. The Decemberists and Gillian Welch are currently looking at joint #1.

Trellik Tower is one of the loveliest songs I have heard this year. Good stuff.
I couldn't make her gig in London last night as I was seeing the excellent Po' Girl but someone has posted this version of Trellick Tower from it with better video and audio than the one above.



Beautiful.
