Emily Wells makes such great-sounding albums. I've already included her other two (well, her other two that you can actually get your hands on) in this thread, and I'm finding her new album just as intoxicating on a nice system. Mama has a lot of fine detail to savor, and the subtlety in her compositions demands my full attention. I've really enjoyed listening to it as an album at a respectable volume. While I'd still recommend The Symphonies: Dreams Memories & Parties as her most accessible if you're inclined to try her out, I'm impressed by the new paths her music is taking, and I simply have to comment on how GOOD her albums sound.
In any case, I bought the CD from Amazon.com, but iTunes has an exclusive bonus track version with an acoustic version of one of the songs ("Darlin'"). I bought that single track from them to go with my CD rip. I love both versions of the song.
