> Song to a Seagull is a thing of rare beauty. It is an amazing debut...as I've said before, I was a latecomer to it as I didn't get it until after I joined up with this group in '98. I was thinking that it was all going to be in Joni's "Helium" voice, so I was pleasantly surprised in "I Had A King" when she sang the word "brown" in a deep, rich alto. I loved it all from listen #1 with the exception of "Pirate Of Penance", which I still think is a pretty weak inclusion, especially when she had so many songs in her (still unreleased) collection that were superior.
