We are seeing Kristin Hersh tonight. She is doing all Appalachian songs. Should be interesting!

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
We are seeing Kristin Hersh tonight. She is doing all Appalachian songs.
Awesome! Let us know how it was....
Is this songs from Murder, Misery and Goodnight, or is it other Appalachian songs?
I have Murder, Misery and Goodnight and it's wonderful. When Emmett was little we'd always play her version of "All the Pretty Little Horses" (titled "Whole Heap of Little Horses" on her CD, I think) to call the tooth fairy to visit because "fairies like sad songs."
The Pierces were in fact on Gossip Girl.
Up at brawk: six covers, including Gossip doing "Careless Whisper," and a link to more.
oooh. Thanks!
eta: I've checked Rawk and rawk2, and don't see it on either. There they are. YAY
Sent to Rawk: Amit Erez covering Minimal Compact's "My Will".
Kristin Hersh show was great, as usual. She played stuff off of Murder, Misery and Goodnight as well as some other pieces that worked with her set off other albums. That woman can play the guitar like I can't tell you. Amazing.
I was practicing my bass today and couldn't get something. It was verra frustrating.
I got out Toro's pick and...
Yep. Residual Toro Power in the pick. Dude.
Amazon is offering Aretha Franklin's I Have Never Loved A Man (The Way I Love You) today as an mp3 download for $1.99. Easily one of the best soul albums of the late 60s, and a must for anyone who doesn't have a copy.
Oooh. Yes indeed. I only found out last year that she plays piano on quite of few of the classic songs she's known for. Even if she'd never opened her mouth, she'd have been a world-class musician.
