The eponymous Rickie Lee Jones
I suppose I’d call myself a bit of a Hi-Fi nut, an audiophile if you will. That’s why I’m here I suppose. I think we’re thought of at a level slightly above train modellers.
But it’s always only about the music and so my pursuit of ‘perfect sound’ and the equipment that plays it has only ever been about trying to get as close as possible to the sound as the artist intended.
Sometimes a beautiful sounding album and a beautiful album are the same thing. There’s a few albums I own that fit that bill, albums that got the production and the musicianship that the material deserved.
An album made by a girl in a beret and the finest musicians in town and she’s got a voice so sassy, flirty, aching and touching that if she turned up on your doorstep you’d ask her to stay the night.
