hey gang,
i
just found oTr in the listening station at my local
indie record store, and have fallen in
love with the
double disc. i got on the web
site and found the
excerpts from previous albums section,
and so far,
it all sounds totally different to me.
(well, ok, piano
and beautiful voice the same, but
different overall style,
sound, arrangement, maybe....i don't know what word
i'm reaching for here). am i nuts? do i have
really
crappy computer speaker? do you
feel this new album
has been a sort of departure in any
way? i was about
to declare them a new fave, but for now
i'll settle for
declaring this album a new fave, for i
just can't stop
listening to it, especially disc
one. thoughts or
comparisons? what one other
recording of theirs
would be the next thing closest to this
release?
i'm still kind of itching to have more of
them.
thanks!
mgn
p.s. i loved that laura linney
movie, too (yccom)
how about "the hours"
for across-the-board
good acting....or "steel
magnolias," or even
"pulp fiction," which has
great performances
by people i don't even like in
other films.
i
could think of a lot more, actually, but i'll stop.
