Aimee Mann

@parkergetdean 

I fortunately bought her two MFSL releases early on.

Her last two albums were much more enjoyable than I had remembered. 💙

Bachelor No. 2 is where it peaked for me. I was obsessed with Magnolia. 

I just looked up the vinyl on ebay, NOT cheap.

@tomic601 she will be in LA and then up in OR and WA for 5 more occasions. 

Fun fact: 

26 years ago I was less than a mile from her playing live. (Davis in Somerville, MA). I was a huge fan by then, and I was dying to see her. But I was unaware of it until after the concert ended. My friend mentioned after a number of beers "btw your favorite musician was playing tonight". I can still relive that devastating feeling I felt. The twist was that I was l living in Europe at the time, with no plans to move to the US, I only showed up here once a year for a week or so. 

I was just ready to say, "Batchelor No.2" may be a superior record.

Yeah, she gas an angelic voice akin to Natalie Merchant and Alison Krauss.  

It seems that she was heralded as one of America's great song writers around the same time as John Hiatt and a few others.
