Definitely.
Her only other studio album is "Oyster", it's a bit more "produced"
but equally beautiful. Then there's the live album "Blow" which I
haven't heard yet, and some CD singles with extra live tracks,
esp. "Maybe An Angel" with six extra tracks (at least on some editions
of the CD-single). She also rereleased "The First Recording", an EP
with her first four songs, more acoustic/folky stuff (seen from Glowstars
it's the opposite of Oyster :-)
Also watch out for the "Rockpalast" reruns on WDR 3 TV, Heather appeared
on last year's Loreley festival.
