30) "The Mid-Morning Recording"      Au Revoir Simone - 'The Bird of Music'
Most likely my favorite album by this amazing trio of ladies. It was so nice of them to give us a lovely promo copy of this album way before it was released on Moshi Moshi. It was nice of them to play for the crowd at The Red House Pizzeria a few years back. A great time indeed. It is a little cool in San Antonio this morning, (wind chills into the 20's), so this album with a wintery atmosphere fits perfect. Please be careful on the bridges folks, and bask in the sunshine of Au Revoir Simone. "We both know it's going to be another long winter / The kind that freezes shut the doors of early spring / But I'll still let you in"
Michael - MFL
