Haven't heard the song from this particuliar soundtrack, but I have heard a duet Patty does with Jules Shear on his new album. It's a pretty decent song, not spectacular, but good. Patty sounds great, but she seems to be holding back a bit which is probably because she didn't write the song. Tha name of the tune is "Windows and Walls", the title of the album is "Between Us". Anyway, I wasn't sure if you guys were aware of this song so I thought I'd drop you all a line. I just Joined the list, having recently discovered Patty's music. I was hoping that some of you could help me get my hands on more Patty material. I'm looking for concert tapes, radio shows, the cd single for Let Him Fly, and a copy of her original demo tape that she sold at her early shows. Can anyone help me out. Will trade or pay!!! Thanks!

Here in fact is the scoop on "The Newton Boys". Patty sings one track called "Copenhagen" with The Bad Livers ( as previously mentioned, an Austin string trio) augmented with some brass and strings. The tune is a vintage composition from the early part of the century and essentially has a "Dixieland" or "Roaring Twenties" feel to it. The track is very short and PRIMARILY instrumental and Patty "bookends" the track with a vocal choruses "in" and "out". He performance is wonderful and she convincingly sings in the "style" or "manner" that the track calls for. The rest of the CD is comprised of early 20's and 30"s tunes performed with limited effectiveness. Nothing to knock your socks off (although there is a standout vocal of "Milenburg Joys" by Abra Moore). This soundtrack would only be for the Patty completist.......

Anyway they have live guests in each show and they play and talk. Patty has been in there a couple of times and I believe that there is about three cd's for the World Cafe out there. Vol I/II/III. It's just a compalation of different live artists. Usually each CD has about thirty different artists, so it's well worth it. Artists like Patty, Old Jewel stuff, Tori Amos, Cowboy Junkies, Willy Porter (from Milwaukee, if you haven't heard of him you have to, I mean have to check him out. He's incredible), etc (good variety). I don't know if they have stopped selling them or not, but if you search the web under "The World Cafe" I'm sure there will be something and they will probably have a list of what's on each album. Hope this helps you, let me know what happens, Joel ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 15:22:42 EST From: Juvenilia Subject: MM: Musical Zealot Mad Missionaries.... ....Thanks to my friend, Michelle, I am a devout fan of Patty Griffin. Although, I will admit, I did not realize she has so many other songs that didn't grace the album, "Living With Ghosts". Can anyone inform me on what other albums/projects she has contributed to? I know about the Jules Shear duets album... anything else? My friend, Jolynn, who is always a musician in Nashville, says that Patty is/was a regular at this one particular venue that now Jolynn has taken gigs in in Patty's place. I hear she's excellent live, but I keep missing shows. Other than the great Patty, I love: Jonatha Brooke - Liz Phair - Paula Cole - Aimee Mann - Garrison Starr - Jen Trynin Abra Moore - Joan Osborne - Ani DiFranco - Holly McNarland Sarah McLachlan - Freedy Johnston - Shawn Colvin Holly Palmer - Chantal Kreviazuk - Sophie B. Hawkins ...And many others. ...Anyway, if anyone knows where I can obtain some nifty Patty music, let me know.... thanks. ...Sometimes, Robbie "We were drinkin' like the Irish, but we were drinkin' scotch." --PATTY GRIFFIN Mad Mission ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 21:43:56 -0500 From: cmw@pa.net Subject: MM: [Fwd: Shameless pitch/begging] This is a multi-part message in MIME format. - --------------4D381AC962FB956704D3DF40 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Ironically to answer your question about the soundtrack, I received this in my email.
