"IMP March 2008"

A low key mix, with an understated modern-folk stream running through it (Vetiver's "You May Be Blue" is an early standout) and a bit of a funk section near the middle. The best track's "Care", by an artist named Kaada - a lushly circling number brushed with elements of soul and doo-wop circa 1950s through to early 60s along with some contemporary electronic touches. Also features Emmylou's deathless "All My Tears" and a faintly raucous cover of "Don't Let It Bring You Down" by an outfit called Weeping Tile.
