I'm pretty sure that it was Mrs S who introduced me to the music of Roman Evening fairly early on in our relationship, so it was a pleasant surprise to find that I'd been left custody of their 'Tiny Ladies' CD after she departed. The 2003 album is a soundtrack to the novel of the same name, written by band leader Adam Klein. There's a distinctly melancholic feel running through it, grist to my mill, as illustrated by the Lennonesque 'Casework'.

Yes, it has the feel of a John Lennon demo about it; something Lennon would work up and polish up a bit. I like it very much.
That's nice. And I really like the album cover.
Glad you enjoyed it chaps. Thanks for giving it a listen.
