Less an album and more an audio diary, this is perhaps my most favourite live album. Scratchy, tactile, warm. Doors close; people laugh; there is chatter in the background. Acoustic guitar — immaculate. Lyrics that take your soul and render it in poetry. Staggering, also, how Adrianne just drops fragments of songs that she's kept for years and years, and lo and behold they turn out to be the most beautiful thing I've ever heard (until the next one). There is a togetherness to it all — it's close and comforting, and yet it places you in the world. Like quietly listening to the voices of those you love ring from somewhere else in the house. Her music reminds you that you're a part of something so much bigger, and I remain in its thrall. PS I have also figured out the chords to 'ripples', if you need them.
