Dana ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2000 03:24:11 EDT From: Everyman7@aol.com Subject: MM: birthday cds You could also put together one or two mix tapes with the absolute essential songs "the MAJOR songs" from each of the singers you want your sister to be exposed to. I have made about 5 of these mix tapes now and have shared them with quite a few people. She might appreciate hearing the exact songs that turned you on to these singers. It is like opening a window to your heart and mind- she will know you a little better. You could still give her the five CDs so that she really has the chance to start get to know those singers if she chooses to listen to them. Those mix tapes are always good for the car tape player.

WOW!!! First of all, now I really know why I'm on this list. THANK YOU all SOOOO much for all the wonderful suggestions. I wish I had the cash to do ten or even more, but alas and alack, this is not the case. Perhaps I'll do a compilation tape or CD or stuff that didn't "make the cut." (great suggestion!) And now that all of my top choices have been mentioned by others, I'll spell out my list and the why's and wherefore's. 1. Joni Mitchell - Blue. number one with a bullet. No remotely intelligent or sensitive person should live without this recording. Absolutely essential. from here on, no particular order: Patty Griffin - Flaming Red. Let's just get this out of the way. I considered LWG, it's very raw and wonderful, but I think the spectrum and depth of emotion is a little wider and deeper on FR. That album is still kicking my ass. Liz Phair - Exile in Guyville. Thank you to the two folks who finally mentioned this! I was beginning to fear brining it up, but this is on the list for sure. Liz is the quintessential chick ROCKER. Someone asked me "who's Liz Phair" once and my infamous response after a long pause: "she's a rock star!" Indigo Girls. Still undecided on the album here. I'm thinking Rites of Passage; it kind of fits the theme best.....this is a more personal one - I discovered IG when I was about 14 and really have never been the same. Janis Joplin - I'll probably do the "18 essential recordings." I'm not THAT good with Janis, but my sis has actually been clamoring for that disc for awhile now, and I agree with whomever wrote about her attitude about expressing herself, etc. She's just damn cool. so there you have it. I tried to think about what she likes and keep it a interesting. The toughest cuts: Ani - Living in Clip (the easy choice) Dar Williams - Honesty Room Other cuts: Beth Orton - Trailer Park Tori Amos - ? Aretha Franklin - ? Innocence Mission - Glow Sundays - Reading, Writing, & Arithmetic Carole King - Tapestry Ani and Dar are the hardest for me to leave off. I understand Tori should probably also be hard to cut....I like her, but I always felt I was missing something there. Maybe I need to see her live. The other cuts are just my favorite. I'm open to more comments. I'll try to respond personally....I'm having kind of a busy week, but I really appreciate the discussion!

Everybody's been making great suggestions, so i thought I'd offer some that no one's mentioned yet. Lilith Fair vol. 1 (the double cd) Dido - No Angel Kathleen Wilhoite - Pitch Like a Girl Eleanor McEvoy - What's Following Me? Nanci Griffith - Flyer Jill Sobule - Happy Town (I haven't heard her new one, Pink Pearl, yet, but I'm dying to.) Maria McKee - Life is Sweet (not as country-folky as her first release, but one of my personal empowerment albums) Tasmin Archer - Great Expectations Patty Larkin - Perishable Fruit Marry Me Jane - Marry Me Jane Sinead Lohan - No Mermaid Katell Keineg - Jet Caroline Lavelle - Spirit It's a great idea for a gift. I wish I could get my 19 year old sister to listen to something I'd suggest. - -Amanda ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 06 Jun 2000 10:47:16 EDT From: "Sarah Stanley" Subject: Re: MM: yet more recommendations for Lisa :) >Dido - No Angel >Sinead Lohan - No Mermaid ack! good call! I can't believe i forgot those two (especially Dido!!) in my own list!!! there are just *so* many wonderful female artists it's unbelievable! btw, because of talk from people on this list about Leona Naess , I checked out some real audio clips on her website and have since then bought the cd and have fallen in love! Thanks to those of you who suggested checking her out!!! :) Sarah - ----------------------------------------------------------------- "Our task must be to free ourselves...by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty." -- Albert Einstein (1879-1955) "Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution.

I can't be bugged to carry M and M's though - I'll just eat'em. Seems fussy. But I'll gladly put a big "M" on my hand in black magic marker, if that's ok. On the Posies mailing list we used to recognize one another by writing a "23" (don't ask) on our hands, and it worked well. Also, I'll be the tall girl with messiest head of pink hair in the place, down front (as always) with my husband, the tall shave-headed fella with a single lock of curly hair on his head. I guess we're pretty conspicuous. xoxo *andie* - --- Flakeybird@aol.com wrote: > Hey, I'm a Jersey girl but I'm going to be visiting my sister next > week and > got tickets to Slims.

If you like Leona and Tara (2 of my personal favorites too) definitely try Emm Gryner - www.emmgryner.com. I did some touring w/ her and have gotten to know her over the past few years, she's awesome. She's currently on tour w/ David Bowie as a backup singer... Some others you might like: Heather Nova, Bic Runga, Dido, Fisher (www.fishertheband.com), Holly Palmer (new album coming out in July), Sarah Slean (amazing!!! www.sarahslean.com)... so many more... :) Jessica www.jessicaweiser.com | mp3.com/jessweiser ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V4 #159 *********************************
