I was at the Virgin Megastore at midnight on September 11th to buy "Love
And Theft" as soon as it went on sale and bought the European release of
The Strokes' "Is This It" at the same time. When I got a chance to
listen to it a few days later, I have to say I did feel a bit
uncomfortable listening to the song "New York City Cops".
That said, under normal, non-terrorist situations I have absolutely no
faith in either the competence or integrity of the NYPD and feel that
their recording of the song was not only justified, but necessary. Bad
situations can't change if people aren't allowed to speak out about them
and I've become very perturbed with the current popular attitude of
repressing individual opinions in favor of "solidarity". The freedom to
disagree and to speak one's opinion is one of the great things about our
country and right now this aspect of our way of life is in as much
jeopardy as any other.

Subject: OT/OAC: Sheryl Crow
I got this from a Sheryl Crow mailing list:
Dave Matthews Band, Strokes, Sheryl Crow Rethink Their
Music
.snip.
Watching firefighters in New York moved Sheryl Crow so
much that she's reportedly rethinking some of the
lyrics she wrote for her upcoming album, which she
finished early this summer, according to the Los
Angeles Times. One of the songs found her decrying a
dearth of heroes in the world - a complaint she said
she no longer feels justified making.
"I feel differently about all that now after what
we've seen," Crow told the newspaper, adding that she
may rewrite the song or drop it from the album. "My
home in New York City is right next to a fire station,
and I had a lot of good friends and familiar faces in
that
department who are missing now."

How did this one go last time? Something about Michael Penn being an
evil, sexist pig who's trying to steal his wife's fame and take it for
himself while crushing her spirit and leaving hair in the soap. Down

Hi Guys,
Ummm.... Who's Mary Lou Lord? I keep seeing her name associated with Lisa Loeb
and Sam Phillips, so I feel like I should know, but I definitely don't.
Anyway, to stick to the current (or current as of yesterday? I never know....)
thread, I've been listening to I'm With Stupid, having newly rediscovered the last
song, which I'm obsessed with. I'm also all over the new and last Jude CDs, How I
Do? by Res (this new R&B girl), the lastest Semisonic album, the Lemonheads and
Freedy Johnston (for whatever reason), Shea Seger, The Apples in Stereo, and R.E.M.'s
Automatic For the People.
Jill Sobule's on Conan O'Brien tomorrow! And, for anyone in the Boston area, free
Juliana Hatfield show at Fanueil Hall this Friday at noon!
take care,
Frank
P.S.- How old is 20 years younger than Bjork?

I've been thinking about it and I can't accept this. The recent
terrorist attacks have affected and will continue to affect every aspect
of our lives for a long time. This will include art and music. The
Mannlist is a community of people from all over the world brought
together by the fact that they are Aimee Mann fans and I don't believe
that one person among us, moderator or not, has the right to be the sole
judge of what is or isn't an acceptable topic of discussion. The time
that all of spend reading and posting messages is time that we have
chosen to devote to this community, and I don't think anything that any
one of us feels is important to share with the rest of the group should
be considered invalid.
Gary, at the very least you should have asked for a vote on the matter.
This fan club belongs to all of us.
I'm sending this e-mail to a few of you personally, since I assume it
will not be allowed onto the list.

Subject: It's time to get back on track, folks.
To all Mannlisters:
I am aware that many Mannlist postings since the WTC incident have been
off subject and/or inflammatory. I did not intervene because (1) most
of these incidents usually wear themselves out over two or three days
and (2) a large number of members were connected to persons in NYC and I
wanted to keep this forum open for them to express their
anger/sorrow/whatever.
But now it's time to get back on track with respect to the subject
matter of this list: Aimee Mann and company.
At the risk of being called a censor, I am setting Mannlist to moderated
mode for a while. "A while" will be a length of time to be determined,
depending on how posters behave. Please, please, please, drop the
non-music-related things and talk about Aimee and company, as well as
non-Aimee music things. To put it more directly, any messages that
aren't reasonably related to Aimee or music in general will not be
allowed onto the listserver.
Flame me if you wish, but the decision has been made and I am sticking
with it--at least until things calm down. As always, thanks to all of
you who contribute so much to Mannlist.
Regards,
Gary G.

Is Michael Penn's "Free-For-All" any good? I almost bought a copy of it the
other day, but the friend I was with told me that aside from "Long Way Down"
the rest of the album is sub-par for him. Not being in the most cashly (I
made this word up. Isn't it useful?) situtation, I decided to pass until I
got some other opinions.

Mary Lou is actually from Boston. You can find her there, almost any day of
the week busking on the street, because for now, that's what she is. It's
something I've always wanted to do was go to Boston and here her play. Find
more out by subscribing to jinglejangle@smoe.org, her mailing list.

Subject: Re: Petition: bring back Jon Brion
To: .mannlist@lists.cc.utexas.edu.
I do agree that whatever Jon Brion touches is graced with gold (or should we
say platinum quality), however it seems that after 2 albums with Jon at the
producer wheel maybe it was simply not Aimee's choice to have him produce.
I was able to talk to Eleni Mandell when she was up in Seattle, and I asked
her about going from Jon Brion producing her first album "Wishbone" to Brian
Kehew producing her second one, "Thrill" ; her response was, "Yes, it was nice
to get away from all the very produced organ sounds."
Please understand, Im not saying that I agreed with her, in fact I expected
her to say something to the opposite affect, such as "Yes, I really did miss
having Jon on this one, but he was tied up with other obligations...."
So, it shocked me when she said it was her decision to not go with Jon.
Add to that Rufus Wainwright's second album "Poses" when compared with his
first self titled debut, I personally prefer the newer one which Jon did not
produce.
Fiona Apple's 2nd album however is great and Jon was behind that one. Ive seen
what Jon can do when coupled with a talent like Fiona Apple and Aimee Mann. (The
guitar solo in the Wallflowers One Headlight, Eel's, Jonatha Brooke, and the list
goes on) like Mary Lou Lord once said, "He goes off and does something that
everyone is thinking what's he doing?" and then when he adds it to the song, its
really brilliant.
So, while I agree that I personally enjoy hearing Jon's solos and added flourishes,
I do know that artists collaborating are about more than just the magic of the
recording, but like a band, it's about how personalities get along.
Sometimes it just nice to change it up a bit and see what you get.
Just to clarify, Im not disagreeing with anyone that it would be nice to have
Jon back producing (I love anything he touches) but I dont know if getting Aimee
a list of a thousand signatures is going to do anything. I trust her judgement
completely.
And just to avoid any flames here, remember this is simply one opinion which
belongs to me. (Someone now say, Nadja you ignorant slut...just kidding)
(Besides if anyone does get upset at this post, Paul Barras will beat you up...hehe)

Frank,
Oh my goodness, who is Mary Lou Lord?
Great question and here's what I can personally tell you. (Someone please
correct me if I get the facts wrong) Mary Lou Lord first hit the scene associated
with the Kill Rock Stars Olympia WA label. She released a cd called "Mary Lou Lord,
Kill Rock Stars" (where Juliana Hatfield sang backup vocals) . It was mostly acoustic
really folky sounding. She continued to release smaller EP five song things, like
"Martian Saints" where she covered songs by Nick Soloman of the Bevis Frond, Pete
Droge and Elliot Smith. (I recommend that EP for a taste of MLL). In 1998 she was
picked up by the Sony WORK label and released "Got No Shadow" which Jon Brion plays
on.
Whats amazing about Mary Lou is that she first picked up a guitar busking in the
Boston subway stations. She was friends with Shawn Colvin (before she got really
popular) and made it her personal goal to have the public know who Shawn Colvin
was since she knew Shawn was an amazing songwriter. The really humorous thing is
that AFTER Mary Lou was signed to the huge Work label, she continued and continues
to play the subway. She says it keeps her in touch with the people and a smile
there is a real reaction, and so on.
Mary Lou is just super nice, really down to earth, and is the kind of girl who
remembers you even if you met her briefly. I can basically say she is a friend
because she is that sincere a person and we hang out when she comes to Seattle.
She is now really into Rockabilly because she and Kevin Patey from the Raging
Teens have a little girl name Annabelle.
(The Raging Teens are an amazing band to see also)
Hope that helps. You should really give Mary Lou Lord a listen, you may end up
busking on the street!

I echo that view quite a bit. Free For All has got a very layered sound
(which owes alot to Patrick Warren's keyboards), and it took me an awful
long time to fully appreciate it, but once I did I was able to then
recognise it for being the masterpiece that it really is! I appreciate all
four MP albums, but that one still remains my real favourite!!
Around the time of its release there was a very perceptive review of the
album in the now defunct UK magazine, Hearsay, which I'd love to send if I
still had it.

On a whim, I bought a ticket for the Sigur Rós concert at the Beacon Theater
tonight. Is anyone else here going?

Will do. I'm mainly going because I want to see if they are human beings or
alien fetus people. I'm a slave to morbid curiosity.

.. . Hi Guys,
.. . Ummm.... Who's Mary Lou Lord? I keep seeing her name associated with
.. Lisa Loeb and Sam Phillips, so I feel like I . should know, but I
.. definitely don't.
..
..
..Mary Lou Lord is from the Olympia, WA area on the Kill Rock Stars label.
..I would associate her more with
..Shawn Colvin, who is her hero. She was rumored to have had a fling with
..Kurt Cobain, and Courtney Love
..and Mary Lou had a war of words years back about it. I listen a lot to
..CBC Radio, and was introduced to
..her music by David Wisdom, one of the great DJ's of all time! Catch
..David on his new show Radio On, on
..CBC Radio midnight Saturday to 4:00 AM Saturday and midnight Sunday to
..4:00 AM Monday.
.
.
.Mary Lou is actually from Boston. You can find her there, almost any day
.of the week busking on the street, because for now, that's what she is.
.It's something I've always wanted to do was go to Boston and here her
.play. Find more out by subscribing to jinglejangle@smoe.org, her mailing list.

No, I don't like Sugar Ray. Sigur Rós are an Icelandic ambient/art-rock
type band. They're the biggest thing in Iceland right now. I do not know
how to pronounce their name.

You're not talking about Sugar Ray no?

I have to go along with Elion on this one. I didn't see a lot of inflamatory
messages posted, and it's not exactly like Aimee is particulary active right
now.
The WTC, Pentagon and Pa. events are probably the most significant news
stories of our lives. It would not have hurt anyone to allow Mannlisters to
express their feelings and emotions, and God knows in the past the Mannlist
has gotten off topic on issues far more trivial without causing the list to
be set to the moderated mode.

To: mannlist@lists.cc.utexas.edu
I thought I'd chime in on "the stuff I'm listening to"
thread even though I kind of feel alienated by music
lately. The only album that I've gotten this year that
really makes me happy over and over again is Depeche
Mode's "Exciter". I think Dave Gahan's voice is the
epitome of coolness. Speaking of cool, Everything But
the Girl's "Back to Mine" is a super chillout CD with
a great mix of tunes from artists as diverse as Beth
Orton, Slick Rick, Donnie Hathaway, and the Roots. But
I'm into chillout stuff a lot lately...mostly mood and
atomosphere and as few lyrics as possible...I got the
new Orbital CD last week and its very good with a cool
cameo by David Gray on one track and Tool on
another...Here's the rest of the stuff I've been
listening to...
Prince - Sign of the Times
Til Tuesday - Voices Carry (pulled it out of the
closet after a number of years..still sounds cheezy
but in a good way..it IS Aimee anyhow)
Badly Drawn Boy - Hour of Bewilderbeast
Marvin Gaye - What's Going On
Le Tigre
Stevie Nicks - Trouble in Shangri La (I had forgotten
how much I love her voice)

It's "Sigger Rose". I read a great article about them
over the weekend, but I can't remember what magazine
it was in. :-( Anyway, that's the name of the singer's
younger sister.
