Some confusion on this one... Amazon is still currently listing the October 11 date, while Hawkins' website suggests the album has been pushed back to February 2012.

A long time coming, this.
I've listened through, and I like it.I can't really be specific, but if you like her previous work I think you'll like this.
At times, her voice has a bit more of a husk to it at times, which I kind of like.
It's nice to have her back.

I think this is really good.
I love the different facets to Sophie's voice here: soft and gentle, husky and straining, reaching for higher notes than I recall, sometimes all within one song! There's a lot to take in on the CD version, but on the first few listens I especially love the pop rock of "Betchya Got A Cure For Me", the percussive and spare take on Nina Simone's "Sinnerman", the soulful, passionate "I Don't Need You" and "Gone Baby"(where Sophie really strains her voice in a way I love), "The Land, The Sea & The Sky", which reminds me of latter-day Laura Nyro, and the jazzy-torchy vibe of "Dream Street And Chance".
Definitely a welcome return for me!
