Oh, Cat Power. She gets a lot of shit, doesn't she? The bottom line is that she has a gorgeous unique voice and writes some of the most beautifully melancholic songs of the past few years. Ok, so, she isn't the best live artist. Please forgive her and move on. She is fantastic enough on record!
My personal favorite album would have to be The Covers Record. The Greatest is quite the triumph but it's her collection of covers that grabs you and steals you away from whatever else you had planned on doing. It demands your patience and in turn gains your admiration. Here's the opening track, you may have heard of it before, it's by some band called The Rolling Stones.
