It's amazing how great a singer Patty is. Back in the day, no one could hold a candle to Joanie as a singer. I saw her at Fillmore East in NYC in August of 1968 -- she did five curtain calls and blew the house away. (I saw her multiple times after that, too, all great, but never at that level.) Now, not so much (at least in this recording). Thank goddess for Patty.

I had forgotton about Diamonds & Rust (which is there too). Always loved her singing that song. I think I have the LP packed away in my collection. Will listen to Mary next. I have to agree with the post that didn't like the rendition. Pretty so-so. Lackluster. I listened to some of her other newer stuff, it shant be an album I'll buy.

Sure, it pales next to the original, but it is still a beautiful song and if there are any Joan Baez fans that aren't familiar with Patty, this could be the push they need to check out the PG catalog. Anyway, I'm out in Denver hoping for a miracle so I can see Sen. Obama on Thursday (TV doesn't really count), while Patty is back in my California stomping grounds for four shows this week. Anybody here going? If she drops any hints about a new album or plays some more brand new stuff, do tell! Finally, a plug for a non-Patty song that is currently enjoying heavy rotation on my iPod. A recent Paste Magazine sampler CD included a track called "Chicago" from Lucy Wainwright Roche's new EP "8 More." She has a sterling musical pedigree (daughter of Suzzy Roche and Loudon Wainwright III, half-sis of Rufus W.) and it shows. Cheers, Larry I in LA (only six more months until Cayamo 2009!) ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V11 #247 **********************************
