Hi Crew, as most of you, i'm getting tired with all that crap, that is the maxim magazine propagenda. so, i wanted something new, and so, it came back to my mind that someone mentioned earlier that sheryl would tour for a while in fall before coming back to the studios. does anyone have some news on that? and, once again, can you all stop this thing about the picture THANK YOU. see you all and enjoy your day (and the pics :) :)) anne ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 28 May 1999 17:55:20 +0100 From: "J. O' Connor" Subject: Re: Maxim photos I'm not flaming, I just want to reply. I agree it is a trashy magazine, but I got it today and the pics aren't bad at all. The interview isn't great though, it's a bit short and no real revelations or anything. It could be given a miss, but I don't regret buying it anyway. Oh, one more thing, personally I wouldn't want to see Springsteen or Dylan in knickers and bra or any such thing but, well, each to their own!

It's possible she didn't but I dunno, she has said before that she usually hates the videos she does for her single because she doesn't get enough say. That was just after SC though, she said she hated the video for AIWD, and I agree. I really don't like it and she doesn't look at all good. BTW, if you go to the message board itself on which that picture is posted and then scroll down quite a bit there are two other pics from the same mag, one of which is very good (the one in top and trousers.)

Most of the tunes on the resulting hit were credited to various combinations of that crew, reflecting their roots in these rehearsals and the unpolished professionalism of such musicians as David Baerwald and producer Bill Botrell. The latter actually bailed out of the follow-up after just one night's recording at Daniel Lanois's New Orleans studio - whether over musical differences, producer's points or a Crescent City spook we're left to speculate - leaving Crow herself to take over. Another member of the club, Kevin Gilbert, co-author of All I Wanna Do and others, died in May. The most vivid song on this second album is a quiet, bitter piece called The Book. To the accompaniment of acoustic guitar, melancholy strings and chapel organ, she sings about a lover who has taken the three days they shared in Rome and turned a precious affair into a kiss-and-tell paperback for fun and profit. It's the kind of experience that could happen to any presentable young woman, particularly one whose first LP was a significant success, a woman frank enough to allude on Tuesday Night Music Club and in interviews to some of the favours she was expected to dispense in exchange for purchase of the greasy pole. But the real story is nothing quite as tidy. The Book was actually entirely made up during rehearsal, its words tumbling out without thought to complement the chord she was shaping. Strange that this dream should have such clarity while numbers like A Change, apparently inspired by the life of Joe Meek, remain so opaque. Like Sweet Rosalyn and Hard To Make A Stand, they're catchy enough - a chipper economy is wired into Sheryl Crow's circuits - with that easy, shuffling, double-tracked boho insouciance that is her strong suit, but you wonder how much stronger they would be if she felt it truly mattered that her points hit home. Does it matter that the swaggering, jubilant chorus of If It Makes You Happy (this record's Leaving Las Vegas) curdles into "then why the hell are you so sad?" An ironic twist or a line that just happens to fit? Much of the record flits by in this fashion: radio-friendly, not too self-important, light on its feet, sometimes too ready to disclaim any serious intent. Like so many records, the key question is whether the tunes will endure long enough to either decipher these puzzles or make them part of the fun. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 28 May 1999 16:03:25 EDT From: Sherylcrew@aol.com Subject: TNMC Sheryl Crow - Tuesday Night Music Club A Missouri-born singer and musician who's had songs recorded by Eric Clapton and Wynona Judd, Sheryl Crow's debut is an instant and lasting joy. Co-written with excellent musicians at recreational sessions (hence the title), these 11 songs blend roots, melody, emotion and intelligence. Drawing on blues, R&B, country, funk and jazz, Crow's nearest reference point is a more together Rickie Lee Jones. The music, led by piano, organ and rhythm guitar, is stylish but not slick, while her charged lyrics mix irony, imagination and observation. She tells real life short stories, offers views from the heads of her characters-losers leaving Las Vegas, misfits hoping for fun in an LA bar, exploitative male creeps-and records unglamorous relationships with telling detail and unexpected angles -him throwing dinner out the kitchen door, or her taking your car and driving to Texas because she suspected you were through. Memorable stuff, sung with that unmistakable confidence of an artist who's getting it right all the down the line. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 28 May 1999 16:04:33 EDT From: Sherylcrew@aol.com Subject: TGS Sheryl Crow - The Globe Sessions She's nearly 40 now, one of the triumvirate of post-Madonna, white, female American singers popular abroad. Whereas competitors Alanis Morissette and Tori Amos rose through imitating post-Cobain grunge and wittering about pudenda and periods respectively, Sheryl Crow is a blank canvas. The Globe Sessions' unappealing title colours those blanks a little. She's striving for authenticity (more believable, perhaps, if her birthdate - recently updated to 1963 - wasn't edging closer to the '70s). Said striving includes calling albums 'Sessions' and her wheezy harmonica on It Don't Hurt ruining a perfectly serviceable song. It's there in the ever-seductive way her voice cracks like Janis Joplin's, or in Bob Dylan's jaunty Mississippi which could be ruined by a bar band but in the safe hands of Sheryl Crow never loses its corporate sheen. Most of all, it's in the triumphant saxophone of Bobby Keys - - who tootled on The Rolling Stones' Brown Sugar - sweeping across There Goes The Neighborhood. If Crow wants to be anyone who isn't Carly Simon, it's Melissa Etheridge, who understands that sounding so insouciant takes real effort. Nobody, save Etheridge, sweats harder than this Missouri woman. According to Crow herself, the self-produced Globe Sessions is more personal than its story-led predecessors, but those looking for overt clues to, say, 1996's autoerotic asphyxiation death of Tuesday Night Music Club mainstay (and supposed boyfriend) Kevin Gilbert, or Eric Clapton, will be disappointed. She's stopped singing about heroin explicitly though. The great songs here - and there are plenty - emphasise that Crow is a consummate songwriter with a joyous flair for musical invention. Thus the spooky but gorgeous Riverwide (the original title track) is part Irish, part Indian, part Daniel Lanois; The Difficult Kind is as elegiac as she'll get and Members Only might as well have been called Hit Single. Elsewhere, it's moments all the way: the segue into the rockout coda to Am I Getting Through (Part I & II); Wendy (as inÉ & Lisa) Melvoin and Lisa Germano resurfacing, or those unsettling 'standing in her panties in the shower' and 'I dropped acid' lines in There Goes The Neighborhood. Sheryl Crow is tired. Shattered, she truanted Lilith Fair 1998; hardly surprising given guest slots on Burt Bacharach, Salt-N-Pepa and Waylon Jennings albums, allied to a lunatic quest to appear on every soundtrack album ever released. The Globe Sessions will ensure being knackered is her only immediate future. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 28 May 1999 16:10:52 -0400 From: brooke james Subject: Sheryl's new stuff on VH1 EVERYBODY WATCH VH1 ON MONDAY!!!!

I remember the discussions we had about her on the list back then, none were negative. Just curious to know where she is now and why she wasn't included in Sheryl's tour, but was in the tv appearances back in fall '98.
