Late last year, I finally subscribed to Spotify. I have lots of misgivings about that, but I've decided for now to see if I like it. Recently, I've been digging into the service's Discover Weekly section, "Your weekly mixtape of fresh music," and was stopped short by a song I'd never heard before, from an artist I'd never heard before.
There isn't much about Shira Small online. Best as I can tell, she made only one album, The Line of Time and the Plane of Now, around 1974. There's no Wikipedia page for her or the record. But it's on Spotify, and its calm, soulful resonance is awfully lovely. So I guess the algorithm is good for something.
