I love Katie Jane, and Ruby Throat is so unique compared to her work with Queenadreena and Daisy Chainsaw, so I can't resist this.

Yes, it's brilliant that Katie is now active again after the extended break. Shame there was no vinyl release for Baby Darling Taporo.  A bit surprised this is on One Little Indian as all Ruby Throat material so far has been released via their own label. The band are endorsing it though via their facebook page, and are also doing a one-off show in London to coincide with the release which sold out almost immediately.

I wonder if they opted to go the One Little Indian route since they took great care with the re-issue of The Butcher and The Butterfly.
