An update to this thread I worked on all through the summer of 2013. This catalog review was almost lost due to a complaint, explanation and modified review here.

^ Thanks bob. If I had to, I would've re-written this entire review thread. I'm very thankful it didn't come to that.

Excellent news, I recently (so recent it was last night) found an outstanding recourse that will allow me to post every song from every album save Pack Rat (I'll upload those myself). I'll be working on this all through the day, this review, from the eponymous debut through Love Letters, will be complete. W00T

"Sister Kate"




"Your Head's Too Big"

So, there's only 1 review to fix, the Pack Rat EP is extremely rare, I will have to fix it myself which means I'll have to replace the app I used that's no longer supported.

I made and uploaded this using the no-longer suppored app

My fave Datri Bean song, I made and uploaded this myself with her permission

^ The best thing about that song is the lyrics, about an epiphany Datri had in "Big Jim's Giant Truck Stop" in Nebraska.
