Nellie McKay - Pretty Little Head

At last, the album in the double cd form that McKay wanted from the outset. My copy arrived in the mail a couple of days ago - delicious packaging, by the way - and while the songs are rearranged slightly from the version which circulated a few months ago, and there are some additional ones (all relatively slight but congruous - of these new ones, "Food" is a particular delight), Pretty Little Head is still utterly great.

Also, just for the record, I'm basically totally in love with Nellie McKay. Well, no surprises there, really.
