Re: Radio M show about No depression music
Hey there, Linda post scripts... np. The Mary Janes. All of you must get this record. Must. Except for Jon who can sell his back if he wants. I can't remember ever being so bowled over by a first record. I must say the first time I saw the band, maybe 3 years ago, now, at Schubas, they were a mess. Um, I saw em at Schuba's 3 months ago (w/ Jim Roll and The Damnations TX) and although they werent a mess, there were not above average. Later... CK It's a common failing of the listening public that they listen to old Rhythm and Blues records and miss the fact that this is folk music.

I saw four, they were as audible at the bar as they were a few feet from it, and as Chris says, they were about the same at the Jim Roll/Damnations TX show. I loved their entire show, but the record is much much better. Give it a chance. For free, sure. For money, no. Bob

Making a record this spectacularly good is far more that what would have been necessary to keep my interest. Can't wait to see them again!

I can't believe they're this much better on CD than in person. They did an OK set opening for Robbie Fulks this past weekend -- I liked the lead singer better than Tracy, who as I remember was pretty underwhelmed by them in general. 'Course, I haven't been listening to them for three years, so I don't know how much they've improved. But just walking into their set the other night, I didn't feel interested in spending money on 'em. I wouldn't avoid them as an opening act, but I wouldn't see them as a headliner, and I wouldn't buy the CD. Bob
