I will be 69 next month. Guess this proves that good music knows no age boundaries. I really love Patty's music, but my very favorite performer is Melissa Etheridge. I also like Beth Hart, Sammy Hagar and lots of others, but someone else can have the music of my youth. BTW, has anyone ever seen or heard Jonell Mosser? She has one kick-butt CD called Around Townes. Naturally, these are all songs written by Townes Van Zandt. Well Duh! I guess you figured that out. I haven't been able to find anything else by her except for one track on the Boys on the Side soundtrack.

If anyone wants to meet up with us, let me know. I haven't been to Slims before, but I guess there are no specific seats- Stand up place, noisy crowd? Donn- if you haven't left for the west coast yet- you have to at least say hi to me- I just met Dave about 2 weeks ago over dinner in PA- June 14- the day of the show- is even my birthday- how cool is that!

My sister is 18 and just graduated high school. She's into classical music and opera, and is a little slow in the folk/rock genre(s). In my continuing attempt to be the coolest older sister (at 25) in the world, I'm thinking of setting her up a set of five essential recordings by women as a graduation gift. These albums should not necessarily be obvious choices in terms of popularity. Here's what I'm getting at: I think it's terrific that there are people at 16 already into Patty, I'm thinking about things she probably wouldn't know about unless someone said "hey, this is cool, you'll love it," and "it will affect the way you think and feel about things." In this case, I especially want to affect the way she thinks and feels about being a woman. I'm curious as to what anyone in this forum would put in this category. I have my list drafted, but before I post it, and before I finalize it, I'd love to open a discussion here. OK. Lisa __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Lisa, What a great gift for your sister's graduation! You are no doubt the coolest older sister for having thought of it! My recommendation would be Cyndi Lauper's Sisters of Avalon. Cyndi is certainly mainstream on some levels and your sister is probably too young to remember "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" but this recording is really a representation of some amazing work. And the title track is this strong drum beat powered anthem for women, in a very anti-Spice Girl kind of way. I would strongly urge anyone to listen to this album. Each song is complimentary to the next, while being completely different and offering a new emotional level. And Cyndi's voice is totally breathtaking. I bought this CD after seeing her live and it does her justice. I'll be interested to see your drafted list...

Lisa, The first recording by the innocence mission (I believe it's self-titled) seems ideal for this. K. Peris has a FANTASTIC voice, it's certainly reflective of that/this genre and the lyrics speak to everything from sibling rivalry to unrequited love (a female perspective). Hope it helps.

Since she is your sister, I'll assume she already has all of Patty's material, so here are a few that worked for me over the years: 1: Ricky Lee Jones "Pirates" 2: Beth Orton "Central Reservation" 3: The Story "Angel in the House" or any Jonatha Brooke 4: Joni Mitchell "Blue" 5: Shawn Colvin "Steady On" Check out my webpage! ~Patty~ http://pattyblee.cjb.net ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 5 Jun 2000 16:47:06 EDT From: UMCaner74@aol.com Subject: Re: MM: Speaking of Age.... Ok, I'd have to go with (other than both of Patty's CD's of course..) Beth Hart- "Screaming For My Supper". She has this sound that is just as unique as Patty's. There are so many good songs on this CD, that you just can't go wrong with it. Her voice will make you go, WOW! I've Never heard anything like that before, and her band is awesome! Another good one is Shannon Curfman, "Loud Guitars and Big Suspicions". This girl is only 14 years old, and can play blues guitar with the best of them. She sings vocals, and has songwriting credits on the CD, but her strong point in my opinion is her guitar playing. I had NO IDEA that it was actually her playing the guitar on the CD for the longest time. I knew Johnny Lang was a guest performer on the CD, but that's only for one song. If any if you guys haven't heard her yet, you should definitely check out some sound clips online.. it's just UNREAL what this 14 yr. old girl does on guitar! Those would be my 2 picks... Take care, Dave p.s. Oh by the way Lisa, you DO sound like the coolest older sister ever! ************************************************ Last night I dreamt of flying Over hillsides in the snow And I dove down through the clouds Into the valley there below When the fields turned into parking lots My freedom turned to dread The ground rose up to greet me And I jumped up out of bed ~~ The Badlees ~~ ************************************************ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 05 Jun 2000 15:56:10 -0500 From: "LouAnn Muhm" Subject: MM: More Recomendations for Lisa (and anyone else) I haven't ruminated enough about this to say that these are my absolute top 10 favorites of all time, but they are definitely 10 good ones for somebody to start with, I think. They are in no particular order-- 1. Living With Ghosts 2. Come On Come On--Mary Chapin Carpenter (also Stones in the Road--not as country as you'd think) 3. Fumbling Towards Ecstasy--Sarah MacLachlan 4. Loud Guitars, Big Suspicions--Shannon Curfman (watch this girl--she's just 14 and will be HUGE within 2 years) 5. Jagged Little Pill--Alanis Morrissete 6. Like I Said--Ani DiFranco 7. Nomads, Indians, Saints--Indigo Girls 8. Ten-cent Wings--Jonatha Brooke 9. Blurring the Edges--Meredith Brooks (there's a lot more here than "Bitch") 10. Eva Cassiday--Songbird It was fun to think about this! Thanks for asking the question-- Peace, LouAnn ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 5 Jun 2000 17:29:41 -0400 (EDT) From: stephenu@webtv.net (Stephen) Subject: Re: MM: RE: Recomendations for Lisa (and anyone else) John is right you must check out "Angel In The House" by The Story.
