I get a similar reaction whenever I > hear that song. FYI a Lone Justice compilation called _This World Is Not My Home" (The Best Of L.J.)_ will be released (in the US only AFAIK) on nov., 10th. The tracklist is: 1 Drugstore Cowboy (Previously Unreleased) 2 Rattlesnake Mama ( Previously Unreleased) 3 This World Is Not My Home ( Previously Unreleased) 4 Working Man Blues ( Previously Unreleased) 5 The Train (Previously Unreleased) 6 Cottonbelt (Previously Unreleased) 7 Go Away Little Boy (Feat. Bob Dylan & Ron Wood) 8 East Of Eden (From "Lone Justice") 9 Ways To Be Wicked (From "Lone Justice") 10 You Are The Light (From "Lone Justice") 11 Don't Toss Us Away (From "Lone Justice") 12 Sweet Jane (with Bono - Live U2 tour, June 15th 1987) 13 I Found Love (From "Shelter") 14 Shelter (From "Shelter") 15 Dixie Storms (From "Shelter") 16 Sweet, Sweet Baby (Live from the Ritz, New York, 1986) 17 Wheels (Live from the Ritz, New York, 1986) The unreleased tracks are from the early LJ sessions (before the first album was released) and are fantastic. The _Sweet jane_ cover is very good too, the two tracks from the Ritz concert are taken from the _Live at the Ritz_ LD. Maria recently did a couple of accoustic gigs in the UK (Birmingham and London) some dates in LA and SF are planned too. I will let you know when I know more.

I don't think that was his problem though. I think Tricky gets his respect because he was one of the originators of "trip-hop" (He, Portishead and Massive Attack are its reigning monarchs, bestriding thrones in some abandoned factory in Bristol), and then had the good sense to disown himself from the whole movement and proceeded to make deliberately hard-to-like records to model himself as a "serious artist", except that instead of being pretentious, he's just rude. Which is just the sort of things the British press like. The American music intelligentsia like him because he's like a hip-hop artist who doesn't care about money, elaborate star tie-ins (PJ excepted) or shooting people, is self-obsessed in a suicidal way rather than the usual macho way, and makes records which they don't understand. Which they can at least pretend to like. Personally, I believe that his first album at least (Maxinquaye) pushed certain boundaries, mainly expanding the Bristol sound from minimalist backdrops overlaid with samples into a fully textured, layered, colourful, genre-crossing type of music (On almost no other album would you find Ponderosa and Black Steel next to each other) Meanwhile, nearly everything else he's done since (excepting Poems, Christiansands and Broken Homes) has bored me, and he committed a major musical crime when he released Ghetto Youth, one of the worst songs ever written and surely the song they play in hell. Well, the rant's over, Tim ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Oct 1998 08:28:24 -0500 (EST) From: 00jnweiser@bsuvc.bsu.edu Subject: Extra Tori tix for purdue/indy/ohio shows??

I'm going to try to make it, so if anyone else is going let me know and maybe we can catch up w/ each other @ the show... I bet it will be small (I hope, anyway)... Patty is one of the most amazing performers I've ever seen live, so you don't want to miss this!:) jessica n. weiser / 00jnweiser@bsuvc.bsu.edu \ songbird22@aol.com "and is this the proof against my ignorance, or am i meant to waste away? and did i choose to be the one who is left, Or is this something sinister? say what you want, say what you want..."

Please help. Thanks. Saturday, November 7th, is the great big Songstreet uberconcert. If you like singer/songwriters (good ones!) and don't mind a very long concert, this is the thing to do. It's the annual Songstreet "Women's Voices" concert, at Somerville Theatre in Davis Square (right on the red line subway stop. Faith Soloway, Mica Richards, Jess Klein, Trina Hamlin, June Rich (the only band on the list), Lori McKenna, Rose Polenzani, and Colleen Sexton. Call 617-628-3390 for info. Any other Boston area ecto-folk: I very highly recommend this! I'd go just to see Trina, myself :) But Mica Richards, Rose Polenzani, and Lori McKenna are also among my favorites. And Faith Soloway is a lot of fun. -- Cos (Ofer Inbar) -- cos@polyamory.org cos@leftbank.com -- WBRS (100.1 FM) -- info@wbrs.org http://www.wbrs.org/ "I am VERY SWEET...I am a little ray of goddamn sunshine, and DON'T YOU FORGET IT!" -- Ximena Cearley, 18Oct1998 ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V4 #378 **************************
