what a way to kick off ‘08….sad that it took eleven whole days for me to catch a show in the new year, but i’ll get over it, i guess. this isn’t a clip from the show we went to @ wrongbar (from her last show in MTL in October), unfortunately my camera conked out early in the eve (very few flickr photos from the show here)
On the complete opposite end of the musical spectrum, this spread on Shelby Lynne was enough motivation for me to uncover that Grammy-winning disc & re-appreciate her songwriting & rich, lush’n'thick production values of Bill Bottrell - now the Dusty cover album doesn’t seem like such a stretch…looking forward to that, but not nearly as much as the phenomenal cover disc dropping in one week from tomorrow…
so i went from a retro fly-girl-hip-hop prep mode to a twangy bbq-smoked bouillabaisse of hurtin’ women in about 48 hours…apt.
old rilo kiley, jenny’s solo disc, eleni mandell (@ the elmo soon, right?), & the real-deal-original dusty are the new s/t…for now…
& just for giggles, compared the cube maxed out tracks to those spun in the new home-cube…guess which’s’work vs. home (& why the predisposition to b-musicians? b-izarro…):
