Hear - Kaki King, Glow

I've never listened to a Kaki King album until this one.  I knew about King from the movie August Rush - an incredible story about a boy, alone in the world, connected to his lost parents through music.  The music in the movie is beautiful and unique.  For some reason I felt compelled to listen to Glow and I wasn't disappointed.  This CD is full of lush, complex songs that defy categories.  It is just gorgeously composed, intricately performed, instrumental music that fills your ears with beauty.  It's a CD that can easily be listened to in the background, or actively for its complexity.  I could not recommend this CD more highly, to anyone.  This isn't a gender, or genre specific album.  It's for everyone and it changed the way I listen to music.  Absolutely worth your time and your money.
