Tube lovers....CAT POWER.. Go see her live..


I just went and saw Chan Marshall (Cat Power) in Vancouver. Wow, the sound, her voice, the guitarist..bassist was like...liquid....honey.

The sound glowed. Maybe it was the venue, but WOW. And the drummer with his cymbal, high hat play gave everything a shimmer... The band was unbelievable.

I now know what I want my system to sound like..

For all those who like sultry female vocalists (I am not really one)... with an unbelievably nuanced, slightly gravely voice ooooooozing with emotionality.... GO SEE HER (she's only doing 12 shows in North America).. you'll thank me.

It was only $35 here...

WOW..

You were lucky to hear her in a venue with good sound. When she was here in the Tampa Bay area recently, she played in a crappy sounding old theater which really diminshed the enjoyment.
If you get a chance to see it, her show on Austin City Limits was pretty smokin' hot IMO. All the musicians in the Memphis Rhythm Band were obviously enjoying playing with her. I agree that her recorded performances don't rise to level of her live performances (the good ones at any rate.)
