"NEWEST'" Favorite album

Received "Mexican Moon" today. Of all of the ways I hoped this band would go, they Rock Out Heavy exactly in the way I hoped they would. I am not a metal head, I have a certain standard when it comes to Hard Rock.
Just want to say as someone who just "discovered" Concrete Blonde, they -are- the band many others attempted to be and failed.

Nglazer: I don't know if she's the most underappreciated or not, but probably under-marketed to the main stream.
I saw her last night in Raleigh on her last show of the tour. It was filmed by UNC-TV for later broadcast. The rain was coming down all day, but majically stopped when she started to play.

Class, class, class, this lady is the real deal! Her voice is so powerful yet she has complete control. Her songwriting is superb, her band is strong and tight, she has it all. She performed a Joni Mitchell cover that was inspired!

Bought the lp at the show, listened to it this morning. I was surprised to find out, even though I didn't see it advertised or on the lp anywhere that it is cut at 45rpm. The lp has very respectable sound, slightly compressed but still gave me goose bumps listening.

Tift is one artist who will blow you away when you see her live!

In the same type music as Tift, here is one that is even less well known that deserves more attention. Pieta Brown "One And All".

Slaw- Thx. I'll have to check out Pieta Brown. Huge Tift fan. I love the way she can go from acoustic ballad to rock. When I saw her a couple of years ago, her band was outstanding. I also really seem to enjoy musicians who go back and forth from piano to guitar for some reason.

EXOCET954, For Richard Thompson check out "Old Kit Bag," "Mock Tudor," "Shoot Out the Lights," plus his new release "Electric Trio." All great but not live. I don't think he has ever put out anything bad.
