LP #30 Indigo Girls – All That We Let In (2004)

Prior to writing up the Indigo Girls last November, I went back and listened to the dozen (!) studio albums of theirs that I own, as well as the double-disc live album 1200 Curfews. This mid-career effort emerged as my particular favorite. I’ve always loved “Fill It Up Again”, but I came to realize that the whole thing actually works from beginning to end.
 
Favorite tracks:
 
Rise Up
All That We Let In
Perfect World
Dairy Queen
Heartache For Everyone

With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
 
 
Although it got very little notice on this side of the Atlantic, this past Friday morning, at the suggestion of a Dutch radio host, stations in over 20 European countries simultaneously (7:45 a.m. U.K. time/8:45 C.E.T.) interrupted their usual programming to play this song to boost morale during the coronavirus outbreak.
