Thanks for reading and the comment Ian! Yes, Wales is definitely beautiful, our third hike here.
I also managed to see Ani DiFranco in concert in Albany, NY in 1998 and she was excellent. I haven’t enjoyed much of her more recent music but I still go back to some of her earlier stuff fairly regularly
There’s a super cool music venue here called Codfish Hallow - it’s a huge barn on a farm that is just amazing! For at least two years I tried and failed to get Ani DiFranco tickets - they would sell out in like 10 minutes!! Last year, they finally got her for two nights, and I was able to get tickets for me and my sisters and it was incredible!!
So many of my favorites here! Love Fumbling Towards Ecstasy - recently listened to a few of my favorite tracks and “Good Enough” is one of my all time favorites.
Totally agree with Portishead - “Roads” is my top favorite!
Definitely going to listen to the Mission track- I can’t remember which of their songs was popular when I listened to them back in the day.
So awesome you finally got to see Ani DiFranco, hopefully she was great!
Fumbling Towards Ecstasy is such a great album isn’t it? One of the nice things about this weekly playlist series is revisiting albums I haven’t listened to in a while and it was wonderful to spend some more time with that album again.
Roads is actually one of my favorite songs of all time (currently have a list of 34 favorite tracks going).
I lived in Aberystwyth for several years. Wales can be so beautiful.
I saw Ani de Franco at the WOMAD festival a long while ago now. As you say, mind opening. Thanks for the memory and the rest of the music.

That Portishead record is monumental!
Such a fabulous album isn’t it?!
Absolutely!
