Kirsty Miller!

The only album you might need, if she'd not made more stuff. But her most consistent? With the french stuff at the end?

!Take that! Nick Heyward!

Absolute classic. But the vinyl version didn't have all "the french stuff" at the end, and was better for it. Some of her best songs are on this album: Innocence, Free World, Fifteen Minutes, all jangly pop classics. But as a whole, I prefer Titanic Days, as it feels more cohesive.

Yeah, it's really good. This is the one that Johnny Marr played on some of the tracks - Free World is one of her best. it's not the only one you need though. All her albums are pretty good. If you had to choose only one, Galore, the greatest hits package is all you need from Kirsty.

Classic for the unassailable songs but the production really, really sucks. Still a good entry point to her stuff though.

This is my favorite album of hers, overall.
