i want desperately to listen to a sad, quiet, dramatic, sultry female vocalist singing to brushed drums and quiet bass like in movies where there's a dark basement bar/club and lonely people sitting around. have you seen Short Cuts? you know what i mean. REALLY MINIMAL drums, quiet jazzy bass, maybe some piano. i cannot for the life of me think of how i'm supposed to find this kind of music. HELP. i heard it on the classical/jazz radio station the other day and shoulda called in...

i feel really stupid asking this, but i am desperate (as i mentioned above). T_T

The first half of Patty Water's "Sings" is right up yr alley. prepared to get the shit kicked out of you on the second half though.

what the hell is Helen Merrill holding onto in this picture? it looks like some weird Geiger-esque chair?

I'd be surprised if you were wrong:
