On the disc’s first track, “Piece of Cake,” Goese sings of feeling like “both the tortoise and the hare” and the record plays that contrast out. Her voice leaps and lurches in the most graceful, acrobatic way.

Some songs hit like quick, darting bursts. Others come on slowly, methodically, like a masseur kneading your skin.

For a frame of reference, think of the freewheeling experimentalism of Bjork, who came on the scene long after Goese. Soak should bring Goese the audience she deserved back when she began.
