    I 2nd Andy D's assessment. Enough of these boring-as-eff albums where every song has the same structure, the same tempo, the same fingered guitar, the same "delicate" vocals. 1 is enough!

    very weak voice.. Even Melanie was better. Thank God we had to wait for 30 years. Eva Cassidy ,please come back.

    Pastoral doesn't quite describe it; this seems to come from some place more eco-protected than any in existence. [24 Oct 2005]

    That Vashti Bunyan had the courage to step out of seclusion and follow up her classic debut is admirable. That she was able to do so with an excellent batch of songs is a joy to behold, pure and simple.

    Lookaftering sees her trading the overly twee vibe of her debut for a darker, more mysterious and mature sound.
