Susan, Thanks for the great review of Julia! Her down to earth and naturally engaging (and hilarious) personality is that something extra that, to me, puts her in the upper echelon of greatness. She is a comet.

I've heard the same reaction from others and I think maybe you just have to see her live to really be knocked out. Her albums don't completely convey her real "white light" of talent.
