Can't bloody wait for this. Still kicking myself for missing the YS Manchester show not a few hundred yards from me.
Oh and for anyone who wants a mash-up of Peach Plum Pear and Someone Great by Lcd (not many of you i don't doubt) it's here: http://www.myspace.com/jickajick

Always have wanted a Snoop/Joanna combo "Bitchez and Balloons."

Very excited. I liked the stuff she did with the band, and thought the EP was great, so I'm hoping it's more stuff like that. I find the Van Dyke Parks arrangements on Ys the album's only weak link in a way; often quite distracting and sometimes even out of time. The EP has a much better sense of a bunch of musicians playing together in the same room.

Moore Brothers are guesting on this, and I am probably the only one excited about that.

Why is everyone so excited about Paul Newman's wife?
― OCONDOR (Pt.1), Monday, 18 January 2010 07:06 (fourteen years ago) link
Saw her play last night.
A LOT of new stuff, a few piano based numbers in the middle and <gasp> almost an outbreak of 'ROCK' was threatened until she quickly returned to the harp. Really enjoyed the long *cough* prog rock-lite *cough* arrangements and Kate Bush, I mean Joanna, sounded great.
And yes, she looked extremely teh hotness.

how were the tunes though lord byron? did you come out whistling the new ones?

'In California' (I guess it's called) is still in my head, but I'm no whistler I'm afraid...

A pretty good recording from the Sydney gig last week has gone up on D!MEAD0Z3N with around 6 new songs, band sounds great too, strings, brass, minimal drums.

Well, now we can reveal a little more about Have One on Me. For one thing, it's a triple album. You read that right: Have One on Me will take up three CDs and three LPs. Ambitious!

It's very pretty though kind of minor & interlude-ish compared to the other tracks :P

25 bones for a triple LP ain't bad!
I skipped Ys, proggier doesn't mean better for me, but I think she's a pretty fucking excellent lyricist & that first album had some very solid jams on it
chances of me ever making it through a triple album that's not on Dust-to-Digital or Deutsche Grammophon are like 1000-1 tho tbh
― Lee Dorrian Gray (J0hn D.), Tuesday, 26 January 2010 20:01 (fourteen years ago) link
lyrics are even better on ys than her earlier stuff imo. snagging the not van dyke parks'd live arrangements of the songs is pretty crucial too i think. but if u cant handle 13-minute harp epics u should stop running with the big dogs and get on the porch.
