Natalie Merchant was on Jools Holland last night, and I was looking forward to her performance. Alas, I fell asleep. (It's been a long week. We're deep within A level exam season here, and I'm an A level lecturer. Exams are happening, coursework marks were just turned in, external moderation folders are requested and must be assembled and sent to the exam boards asap. Oh, and that marking I do for an exam board for extra money -- marking other centres' exams in my field -- it's here!) Anyway, the husband said she was very good. So I've sought out the show in BBC I Player. Here's the link, although I'm uncertain if folks outside of the UK/Ireland can watch it. (We pay the licence fee, after all.) http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0444zx9/later-with-jools-holland-series - -44-episode-5 If you can view it, other guests include Brian Eno and Karl Hyde, Kasabian, St. Vincent and Ibibio Sound Machine. Merchant appears around 40 minutes in. I admit to fast forwarding a bit, but it seems as if she only has the one song. You know what's crazy? Besides the music, I'm currently admiring Merchant for not dyeing her grey hair. :) Ellen "Literature stops in 1100.

Anyone with thought's on Natalie's new self - titled project that was released last week? ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 May 2014 20:08:58 -0400 From: Jeffrey Burka Subject: Re: better poe link Thatbs one of those horribly depressing Record Industry stories. Basically her contract was bought and then sat on. I gather it was a pretty crappy contract, because she was unable to perform her own songs while it festered. She blogged occasionally, tried some arty projects, but you really had to dig deep if you wanted to know if she was up to anything. Which she wasnbt. Sigh. Hard to believe itbs been 14 years since _Haunted_ came out. Other than maybe _Bachelor No. 2_, itbs probably my favorite 2000 release. jeff On May 15, 2014 at 7:23:59 PM, jessica spurling (jessica.spurling@gmail.com) wrote: oh wow. yay. i wondered what happened to her.

I really love it. It took a few listens to get into some of the earlier sections of the album, to really start to pick up the individual songs. But I can't stop listening to it. I wish there were a few more tracks with the sonic diversity of It's A-Coming, but overall I think it's an incredibly strong album.
