The >Iron Horse was packed to the rafters, and I'm sure everyone who >came was really glad that they did. yeah, i was surprised it was as full as it was. i guess the endless wonders of a supportive record label (rounder/zoe) are proved again. the show was also sponsered by "the river", a local fm radio station with introductions for deb talan and sarah by one of their deejays. that helps too. incidentally, sarah made an appearance on the river earlier in the afternoon. anyone in the western mass region hear or record it? > Sarah was joined by Kevin Fox on electric bass, cello and >backing vocals, and... umm... the drummer whose name I'm >forgotten on drums and occasionally electric guitar. jason something-or-other. i'm pretty sure his surname starts with an "o" but i'm also pretty sure it's not "obispo" like my brain is saying. >They >played a great set, with plenty of songs from You Were Here, >plus a Weeping Tile song ("Good Fortune"), and some new ones >(one so new it didn't even have a name yet). the new one (i think there was only one) was the same one she played at the mercury lounge last december. one that you might have mistaken for new was "trouble in the fields", one of the old-time songs that sarah did on _songs for clem_. they also did a stellar cover of oh susanna's "alabaster". some would argue better than the original, and i might reluctantly agree, but it's hard to beat the harrowing tone of susie's stark voice and guitar. they certainly do it justice. (i know a lot of ectophiles aren't too thrilled by oh susanna, but i really like her, so there. thpth!) >The highlight >of the evening for me was when the last song of the regular >set turned out to be "Lodestar," which is easily my favorite >of her songs. yeah, that is a great tune...it seems to be everyone's favorite as there were a few calls for it, some as soon as the beginning of the show! at least no one yelled, "we love you sarah!" not yet anyways. woj n.p. sarah slean -- mute cute girl ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V7 #47 *************************
