My best friend Carmel was driving through Hyde Park, in beautiful Austin Texas this afternoon, and called me from her cell phone to tell me that the amazing Patty Griffin was walking in a crosswalk right in front of her !!! (wearing blue sweatpants and a purple shirt!!!) Damn, I wish I lived in Austin Texas. I asked her if she said hi, but she said she was too shy. Boo hoo from Spokane Washington.

Big Daddy, who caught 'a little fish' and had 'one wish' ('put the little fish back'Patty implores...)... It talks about light things, how 'all the kids laugh at him cuz he's so funny, warm and fuzzy,' but the song itself sounds like it's filtered through a sad and heavy morphine haze... That's my .02 Here's to a happier, less pedophilic Friday!

I ordered a copy on Amazon.com at a very reasonable price. Amazon will list other related artists and the recommendations that I've also seen on the MM list were; Gillian Welch, Lucy Kaplansky and Aimee Mann. These artist aren't played here on local radio, so I know I'm missing out on some great tunes. My question is this - which CD from the aforementioned artist should I start out with? I'm looking the one that'll "hook" me, much like LWG did to me. Thanks a bunch Eugene BTW, I just love Ani DiFranco's latest - Evolve! - -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 5 Apr 2003 13:18:53 +0930 From: "Danny Wallace" Subject: MM: Re: NPC: Need some recommendations for gillian welch - her latest album Time (The Revelator) (2001) is excellent and probably the most accessible of her albums. Her first album Revival (1996) is easily as good, if not better but I found it a little harder to get into. Once you do though it is amazing. I still haven't quite got my head around Hell Amongst the Yearlings (1998) yet but it has some good songs. for aimee mann - Bachelor No2 is probably her most accessible album, but then all of her albums are full of excellent songs, you can't go wrong really. danny - ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Saturday, April 05, 2003 12:05 PM Subject: MM: NPC: Need some recommendations > Hi all > > I've had to replace my copy of Living with Ghosts (this'll be my forth)and > couldn't find any in the local record shops.

She is on equal footing with Patty Griffin in my world. I'd recommend going in the order they came out: Start with 'Whatever', one of the most underated, underplayed incredible albums ever. Next, 'I'm With Stupid', it's rockier, but just as great. Then, 'Bachelor No. 2', a masterpiece. She's not the same style as Patty, but just as Patty's music is hard to put into a definitive catagory, so is Aimee Mann. It's some of the prettiest, smartest written pop/rock you'll ever hear. I wish I could go back and discover her again. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
