Extremely critical of you to judge her album so!  "Caught a Lite
Sneeze" caught my fancy after the 2nd listening.  Some music take
longer to absorb and enjoy.  Heck, though I'm a huge Kate fan, it took
me 3 months before I figured out how to enjoy "The Dreaming" LP, and
it's my 2nd favorite of all of kate's LPs now!

I haven't sat down and carefully listened to the rest of "Boys for
Pele", but I can say the first track "Horses" sounds good. 

Besides, by the time Kate releases her next LP, we may be buying Tori's
5th LP by then (5th if you include her debut album, Y Kant Tori Read).
