If Joan was in the audience during someone's
performance in some little Village folk club and she liked the music, she
would start "harmonizing" from her seat with her inimitable shrill
relentless vibrato until all attention was placed on her and the on stage
performer was all but drowned out.>>>>
Somebody should have punched her in the face.
On another topic, I saw a few interesting CDs in the used bins last night:
Odds - Neopolitan
Rich Creamy Paint - s/t
Anyone have any input on these? Descriptions of the songwriting and sound
are most welcome.
Finally, I'm re-digging the Falling into Place CD by Candy Butchers - what a
great batch of songs by a great songwriter! I think Mike Viola is one of
the better tunesmiths of all the hundreds of 90s/2000s artists I've been
turned on to by Audities over the years. I still like the Live at
Bonbonniere EP and the unreleased Blue Thumb debut best, but this is a very
close runner up - putting these two together makes one heckuva comp CDR.
Must admit tho I'm not quite as thrilled with Play with Your Head - I like
it, but don't love it. I'll have to try it again to see if it grows on me.
I believe the Auditeer consensus on the CB's newest effort is favorable, if
my memory serves me - ? Any feedback on what the song/performance style is?
I recall that the lyrical content is very personal and confessional, but
can't remember reading anything about the music/sound.
By the way, I have an extra copy of Falling Into Place if anyone wants to do
a trade.
