Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

Recent-ish Reissue Rediscoveries FITE! songwriting vs interpretation, mellow smoothness vs. rough & cracking, bach vs. billie. both share horrible, smack-fueled demises. i slightly favor judee but how can you not love karen? actually, i totally can see why, i just ain't one of those people.

apples, oranges. judee sill didn't really operate in the "folk music tradition" (this includes the blues) in the same way that karen dalton did. i think karen dalton has a stronger voice, but 90% of the time I'm still going to put on side 2 of heartfood.

off-topic: Judee's drummer is amazing. For reals.
