The Beekeeper is the eighth studio album by American singer-songwriter Tori Amos. Scarlet's Walk would always be a tough act to follow, and The Beekeeper is indeed not in the same class. Taking by itself, it is still vintage Tori, a generous collection of very attractive songs running at almost 80 minutes, even though there are no absolute highlights. My picks from this album include Parasol, Jamaica Inn, Sleeps With Butterflies, General Joy, Ribbons Undone, Cars And Guitars, Original Sinsuality, Martha's Foolish Ginger, Marys of the Sea, and Toast.
