April 05, 2002
okay, so i slept...here i was, just a few days ago, telling folks not to sleep on cookie: the anthropological mixtape...and it turns out that i was doing some serious sleepin' my damn self! not on my grrl meshell, mind you...but on res. have ya heard??
i had an amazon.com credit burning a hole in my pocket for a few months, as a result of some returns around x-mastime...so i finally broke down and placed an order last week. i've been hearing about res for months...she kept turning up on lists of people's favorite artists, over on the meshell message board...but when anitra mentioned her "beloved res" in a recent post...and then i saw the video for "they-say vision" (or was it "golden boys"?) that same night...i knew it was time to wake up. the package came today.
like the review implies, how i do and res's sound are completely fresh and different from anything i've heard in a long time. i'm listening to it right now, trying to think of possible comparisons, and coming up with none. this one's staying in rotation for awhile. LOVIN' it.
i also got tweet's southern hummingbird, which is NOTHING like i expected, judging from the ubiquitous "oops (oh my)"...but still really nice. kinda slow and mellow. and, tho i haven't listened to it yet, i got alanis morrisette's under rug swept. i've always liked her. she's original. and kinda gutsy. and i don't know of too many artists who have so utterly remade themselves and their careers like she has. i mean, just imagine her as a canadian pop princess flinging her long curly tresses on STAR SEARCH with none other than ed mcmahon! *lol*
anyway...i also ordered a coupla goodies for my sweetheart, as our (4th!) anniversary is coming up later this month. the specifics of that part of my purchase shall remain under wraps. *grin*
oops...i almost forgot. for all you fellow meshell heads out there, peep the lengthy list of new tour dates at matthew's freemyheart.com. plans for cleveland (and possibly detroit) are underway! *doin' the cabbage patch*
