Oh Susanna – Sleepy Little Sailor

Sleepy Little Sailor is the second full-length album from Suzie Ungerleider under her stage name, Oh Susanna. According to the UK sticker on the cover of my copy of this CD, she has been likened to Gillian Welch, Iris DeMent, Lucinda Williams and Tom Waits, though the critics have not been unanimous in singing her praises:

• AllMusic gives Sleepy Little Sailor only 2.5 stars out of 5
• No Depression gave it a very positive review
• Now Magazine gave it five Ns

I prefer her "Ted's So Wasted" to John Entwistle's "Ted End," but that may just be me.
