Excerpts from internet.listserv.postcard2: 10-Mar-99 RE: Kelly Willis song comments by "Jon Weisberger"@fuse.ne Amen. I think if she covered (You Can Put Your) Shoes Under My Bed... OK, I'm bettin' this is a different song than the great Johnny Duncan hit, "She Can Put Her Shoes Under My Bed," right? Yep. A Paul Kelly original, first recorded on his acoustic record _Post_ (1984), later done with a full band on _Comedy_ (1991). The latter record also features an enjoyable rewrite of "Dallas From a DC-9" entitled "Sydney From a 707". Carl Z.

Jim, smilin' He is very influenced by Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan (who isn't but you can really hear those people in his songs). He has a song on Charlie Robison's latest cd and Sara Hickman also covered him on one of her cds. Jerald

Excerpts from internet.listserv.postcard2: 10-Mar-99 Kelly Willis song comments by Hill, Christopher J@PSS. And an album of Paul Kelly covers? Bring it on! Amen. I think if she covered (You Can Put Your) Shoes Under My Bed, she'd score a very large hit. Carl Z.
Re: Kelly Willis song comments
Thanks for this, Chris
Chuck Prophet is just such a effing STAR. It's a crime that this man is not as big
as, I dunno, Tom Petty...
Stevie
What I Deserve (KW/Gary Louris)
I started this song in a hotel room when I was extremely lonely. Chuck's phase
shifted guitar is my favorite part of this recording.
Got A Feelin' For Ya ("Real Deep Feeling" - (Dan Penn/Chuck Prophet))
I had so much fun recording with Chuck Prophet. He played this song for
me and all I wanted to do was sing just like him. So I got him to sing
it with me. Everyone had fun making this record!

Heaven Bound (Damon Bramblett) Damon Bramblett has a very unique style and you should hear him sometime. I think I know what this song's about but he's not telling. Ive been wondering about this song myself. Anyone got any insights? I like it alot. Who is Damon Bramblett?

I've been trying to figure this song out too. Is the singer sympathetic to the protagonist of the song? Is it a putdown of an old flame? Come on, this list hasn't had a good debate about the meaning of a song since the infamous "Radar Gun" wars. Evan Cooper p.s. I saw Damon Bramblett last year at SXSW and thought he was right up there with sliced bread. Reminded me a lot of Johnny Cash. Same rumbling voice and a very compelling stage presence to boot.

Well at first it reminded me of kind of a Band/Dylan/late Beatles kind of vibe about leaving the scene. Now I think its a kind of epitaph about someone who fatally overdosed. Maybe both
