Then it was a book, which came with essays, lyrics, and the ability to download the songs. Or a CD. Now Kristin Hersh's _Crooked_ is available as an iPad app. If you've already paid for the book it's probably not worth the $7.99 they're charging for it on the App Store. But it sure is gorgeous. It's a combination audio player and e-book featuring all of the content of the book -- the gorgeous photos, lyrics, and essays. In addition, while you're looking at the lovely photos, you can play each song in a lossless format, listen to Kristin read the accompanying essay, or listen to the equivalent of a DVD commentary track as Billy and Kristin discuss the song as it plays in the background. It's really a wonderful package. Actually, I'd love to see some of Happy's material released in this format! http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/kristin-hersh-crooked/id398950554?mt=8 jeff ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V15 #301 ***************************
