It's Ladies' Day Today

Helen McCookerybook has contacted me to say that there's a compilation of her work available from Rough Trade at http://www.roughtrade.com/site/shop_detail.lasso?search_type=sku&sku=256585 - I don't know how much of the H&H album is on it so until I find out I'll leave the link up.

In the meantime, more prima iPod tracks.

Today I'll feature the ladies that make me stop whatever I'm doing to listen more carefully. Once again, all these tracks are available on album and I'd urge you to go and buy them if you like these samples. Every album mentioned is excellent.
