I was just thinking about
Astrid yesterday.
Astrid is really really cool - almost too cool for me, haha. I think of
Astrid Kirchherr, a good
German friend and early photographer for The Beatles in the late 50s/early 60s. Look how cool she is!

It's definitely a harsh sound, which turns some people off. I find it unapologetic and well-balanced. Thumbs up from me.
