All of Joan Armatrading's songs get a +1 from me for the halo effect of reminding me of my mom.

She's back on tour with a new album, going to see her on Tuesday, looking forward to that!
I've always had a soft spot for her voice, this album used to be a tune to show off a good hi-fi system in the 80's as the recording is really good. much like Fleetwood mac's Rumours.

Can't she do both? After all, selling records is what made it possible for us to continue enjoying her art 30 years later.

I've liked her from her debut.  I have quite a few of her albums.  A unique voice.

Great tune. I'm digging the drummer on the track, wonder who it was...

Amazing voice.  Been a fan sine the 1976 S/T album.  "Down To Zero" and "Love And Affection" move me.

Saw her at the Carolina Theatre in Durham, NC with Don Dixon opening, quite a few years back.  A lovely show!
