Marjorie Fair - Self Help Serenade

I was mesmerized during that first listen.  Each successive note and song seemed like it could not be more perfect...like the whole thing was unfolding according to some cosmic plan.  Yeah, well, whatever.  If you weren't right there you wouldn't know, would you.  

(Thanks to Pokey77 for turning me on to that one.
