Jessie Ware - Glasshouse

Boy, Jessie Ware just keeps on putting one good record out after another. This one's almost uniformly ballads, not that I'm one to complain about that, and maybe just a tiny bit too evenly mellow but that's a minor quibble in the context of Glasshouse's overall high quality. Highlights: "Your Domino", "Selfish Love" (bossa nova!), "First Time", "Hearts" (the most ballad-y of the ballads), "Slow Me Down", "Finish What We Started" (complete with new wave good vibes).

(Devotion; Tough Love)
