No good if you're funny about voices - Lisa Gerrard has the most bizarre
voice which makes some people run screaming from the room. A bit like Liz
Fraser from the Cocteau Twins, but not, if you see what I mean.
First couple of albums "DCD" and "Spleen and Ideal" are not so immediate.
One of my faves is the third one "Within the Realm of a Dying Sun" - so
stately and sad.
The last two proper albums are my definite faves - "Into the Labyrinth"
and
"Spiritchaser".
Buy them all if you can....
