A Rockin' Satisfyin' Work Of Art!

"A lot of care & talent went into this album, which only gets stronger & reveals more surprising facets each listen.Penelope covers a lot of ground in the writing, the voices delivered, themes, and settings, although quite electric rockin' hooky pop is the 'thrust'.The chamber music-esque cut (5), surreally 'about?' certain youthful exploits of "the strong and the terrible young Tiger Woods" is a pure marvel of a song that the Muse must smile with satisfaction on... an evocative short story in musical form.TONGUE is sometimes naughty, sometimes nice, PH has been there/done that, her voice is a finely nuanced instrument that squeezes expression into each line; guys: get ready to fall in love, girls: dig a strong woman at the proverbial peak of her powers!"
Another wonder

"This is the second Penelope Houston CD I've owned, and it's better than "Cut You" even though I listened to "Cut You" over and over again. "Tongue" is more consistent both musically and the blending of the songs into one musical presentation.
Go get some "Tongue"."
