Just an overall beautifully constructed album with so much soul and passion. I’ve never really listened to much blues music but I heard this was a really good one so wanted to check it out. The songwriting has a very folky / mythic quality to it that I can’t really explain, but that feeling mixed with the raw passion from Nina as she glides over delicate and smooth piano is just really nice to listen to and I would say it Moves Me heh.
