You can buy them on Amazon, so that counts as wide release I'd think.

Anyway, she's the tops, easily one of my top 5 favorite artists, and I've only been listening to her for less than 9 months.

so, there's a new Judee Sill release! Live recordings from BBC sessions, on Water. picked it up last weekend -- great stuff, even better than the live stuff that was on the Rhino CD of the first album.
Her guitar playing really sounds great on "There's a Rugged Road" and ditto her piano on "Enchanted Sky Machines". there's a funny moment in an interview with a BBC dude who asks if she's enjoying playing European venues, and Sill says "What's a venue?" also a sweet part where she says she misses her basset hound.
anyone else pick this up?
― Stormy Davis, Friday, 22 June 2007 19:50 (sixteen years ago) link
Yep, got it in mail the other day. Sounds really good, tho hearing those between song talks sheds as much light on JS as the songs do to me

Just got the BBC disc in the mail this morning. Stunning from the outset.

Voxtrot's new album has a song about Judee Sill called "Real Live Version". I have mixed feelings about it, but ultimately I think I may like that at least someone tried to write a song about her. Any other examples?

Jackie Leven, 'The Silver In Her Crucifix,' from his fine 2007 album 'Oh What A Blow That Phantom Dealt Me.'

Was listening to that BBC session earlier, when she introduces The Kiss as "a new song I finished a few weeks ago", wow... that's intense beautiful. Like Dominique said, you can tell by those talks she wasn't really kidding around.
Apparently there's a Tommy Peltier record called Chariot of Astral Light which supposedly features Sill, anyone heard it?

i'll definitely watch the documentary.
definitely a major "this person should have been huge" artist, perhaps the best example of this i can think of. although seems unlikely it might have saved her.
the kiss is an all-timer for me

Dreams Come True is very good. Not better than the two proper albums, but I still highly recommend it if you need more Judee.
― Cow_Art, Sunday, 3 October 2021 14:37 (two years ago) link
co-sign dreams come true. "i'm over" is maybe my favorite song she did.

Apart from Dreams Come True, there's demos, alternates, and live tracks found on the CD reissues. It can all be found on Abracadabra, The Asylum Years. There's one outtake, "The Desperado," from Heart Food. Vinyl nerds can find these tracks on the Songs of Rapture and Redemption 2lp set. I'm glad I have these different versions but I never find myself reaching for them.
Live In London: The BBC Recordings is pretty good.
Chariot Of Astral Light by Tommy Peltier features Judee on some songs and while it's not bad, it does feel like the bottom of the barrel. There's a nice interview with Tommy where he talks about his relationship with Judee. I should give it another chance.

Just saw a young charming singer who grew up a block away from where I live who did a Judee Sill cover- while wearing a picture of Dolly Parton hanging around her neck, who she also covered- and it was great! Actually did two Judee Sill covers along with two Roches covers. Can’t now recall what the first Judee Sill tune she did was, the second was “Enchanted Sky Machines.”

Ali Dineen. Think she has maybe one album and a few other things out now. They seem pretty good but the live experience was really something extra.

Also, there's some kind of folksy scene at a place called Jalopy House in Brooklyn that I never heard of that she seems to be associated with, some other people from that place made the journey last night from their borough to ours.

Jalopy Theater? A lot of their programming seems a little like folk music cosplay to me, like people who exactly replicate the Sun country sound or do 60s western swing or spot on piedmont blues or stuff like that. Curious to check her out though.
