Hey Jeff,
I founded and now co-moderate a yahoo 'group' for fans and friends of
"The Innocence Mission". You'll find a big, happy bunch of Natalie
(solo) and 10,000 Maniacs fans amongst our members, and we'd be glad to
have you on board (pun intended). There are even (gasp!) a few "other"
Auditeers in our now-rapidly-growing, but still intimate, online
community. You can find us here:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ourcourtyard/
ALL are welcome!
(there are no "review"-type posts regarding her new album yet, but I
know I've read one recently and I'll see if I can locate it again. Also,
according to one of our members, who quotes Natalies web site, she
recently gave birth! It's a girl. Uh-oh! Potentially more bad news for
you guys who find her obnoxiously politically correct.)
I'm not even hip enough to say that their "early" work is my favorite
(no offense, you Hipsters! <grin>). Heck, I like "In My Tribe". It's
been in rotation now for 14 years. ;-) "Don't Talk", for example, is
one of my favorite songs ever. That cascading bass line and the
aforementioned very tasty rhythm guitar work ... ah yes. Good stuff.
C'yuz!
