JOANNA NEWSOM Have One On Me (2010 US limited edition 18-track
3-LP vinyl set - 'Have One On Me' is an extravagantly packaged
collection of fantastic new Joanna Newsom songs: her most colourful
record to date. Joanna's music has more of an affinity with the Folk
revival of the 60s, or the Bluegrass movement at present, than with
most contemporary Folk [or Anti-Folk] scenes. Affinities aside, her
style could hardly be called Bluegrass; nor does it evoke the pastoral
tonalities of '60sFolk: she sings about whalebones, sleep, grammar,
mollusks, accumulation, automobiles, owls, burning boats, string
collections, milk, teeth, bridges, balloons, cake, colors, and kin, all in
an otherworldly, ragged-sweet voice that defies convention. Presented
in sealed deluxe hinged lid box)
