I have both that exact gray market CDR, and the official Rhino re-release (with better sound quality).
Anyway, I can zip up all the Josie I've got if you want. And it's well, worth having. The best tracks are comparable to something like a female Jackson 5. Best Studio musicians in Los Angeles, and Patrice Holloway (little sister of soul legend Brenda Holloway) on lead for most tracks.
You can ask the guy who wrote a book about Bubblegum Music.
Well I was
thinking
of you specifically. Does that count?

That would be great! Thanks!

I was listening to Josie tracks last night for sentimental reasons (some of the songs I hadn't heard since the early '70s) and I was surprised at how good they were.
Shall I send it to your profile addy?
Josie & the Pussycats songs are also relevant to my interests...
Sleater-Kinney are live on NPR right now [link]
Music recs wanted!
Is there any other music that could be comparable to Playing for Change songs or HitRecords "You're Not the Only One" where it is a collaboration of many artists? Or at the least uplifting/inspirational or just epic like U2/Greenday's "The Saints Are Coming"? --After listening to that last, not so much on the epic, just the uplifting and heartwarming.
So! This actually happened a bit ago, but well, stuff happened, and some of you already know, but still. Anyway! I'm proud to announce my first mini-album has been released! It's a three song EP. I do blues/jazz covers of "Hanging Tree" from Hunger Games, Pink Floyd's "Have a Cigar," and my own original, "Sleepin' In." (spoiler alert - it's not about sleeping!) Head over to [link] to take a listen, and throw me a couple bucks if you want to download the tracks!
How cool, Liese! I really liked your version of Have a Cigar.
