Gave Cat Power a listen, really liked her. Quite a difference between her older and more recent stuff. Tried out Metronomic, not sure what I think of it. Will Have to give it another listen. Thanks for the tips. Oh, have you listened to Joanna Newsome, very odd, but grand stuff.
I go back to a lot of old stuff, love Al Bowly (sic) and Cab Calloway is a great treat.
   Great thread, I have learned a lot.
