Even staying to watch Nels Cline would be worth the price of admission. ~Mark - ------------------ Saturday, October 25, 2003; Page C03 Washington Post Carla Bozulich Of all the innumerable collaborations Willie Nelson has entered into during his nearly 50-year career, the one he recently undertook with Carla Bozulich certainly ranks among the most unusual. Bozulich -- a maverick artist whose work includes leading the sexually drenched industrial rhythms of Ethyl Meatplow and the unhinged country-punks the Geraldine Fibbers -- recently recorded a song-for-song cover album of Nelson's 1975 classic "Red Headed Stranger" and called it by the same name. When Willie got wind of her dramatic re-imagining of his lonesome murder epic, he welcomed the chance to duet with her on a couple of tracks of what became one of this year's most offbeat and moving albums. Willie wasn't with Bozulich during her excellent show at the Warehouse Next Door on Wednesday night, but the California-based singer had a crack band featuring the amazing guitarist Nels Cline, and she delivered a great program that included "Stranger" songs plus material from her overlooked back catalogue. Bozulich's arrangements of "Time of the Preacher," "Remember Me" and "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" turned on her husky, smoldering vocals and Cline's doleful leads, which he often fed into a sampler box that returned them backward, sideways and drenched with echoplex. Complemented with drums, double bass and violin, the country-western vision Bozulich's band concocted was modern and magnificent. Bozulich offered reminders that she is more than a clever interpreter, offering her own "My Diving Day" and "Ripened Peach" (an Ethyl Meatplow standout), then closing the show with a totally different cover, torching up Marianne Faithfull's "Times Square." Between twisted country and dark-city anguish, Bozulich continues to walk a lonesome and inventive musical path. - -- Patrick Foster ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2003 21:26:59 -0500 From: meredith Subject: Jane Siberry coming to New Haven Hi, Just a reminder to the Connecticut-area ectophiles that the one and only Jane Siberry is coming to New Haven on Friday, November 21. woj and I are deeply involved in making this show happen, so it'd be great to see a good-sized ecto contingent in the audience!! Jane and her quartet (Tim Ray, Rebecca Campbell, and Amanda Homi will join her) will present "Shushan The Palace - Hymns of Earth", the concert event accompanying the CD of the same name which will be released next week. The venue is New Haven's historic Center Church On The Green, which will be perfect for this presentation of "centuries-old Hymns by Handel, Bach, Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, Rossetti, Holst, et al." in Jane's own unique way. :) Tickets are on sale online at . Please spread the word -- the church holds over 600 people, so there's plenty of room for everyone. :) =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== Live At The House O'Muzak House Concert Series http://muzak.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V9 #304 **************************
