Well as you can see I was asked to remove the tracks that I hand picked from Jukebox. So I will comply…The problem is the promo tracks that they have so graciously allowed are not my favorite tracks from the album, although Metal Heart is an amazing song and one of my personal favs it was first found on Cat Power’s 1998 album, Moon Pix. Sigh…But I suppose it will have to do for all those who are not that familiar with Cat Power hopefully it will be enough to pull you in.

mp3: Metal Heart (Chan Marshall)



I can’t resist Cat Power (Chan Marshall), I love her, of course not in a romantic sense but in a sense that she can do no wrong in my eyes. Her voice just makes my heart beat the rhythm to her sultry sounding chords. Jukebox is her second album of covers, an album of classic songs of those who have influenced her the most over the years. Songs from the likes of Janis Joplin, Hank Williams, James Brown and Billie Holiday. This album is something to be heard indeed.A couple of my favorite tracks from the long awaited new album…

mp3: Silver Stallion *REMOVED (Lee Clayton) – Chan Marshall

mp3: Don’t Explain *REMOVED (Billie Holiday) – Chan Marshall

    Not in a romantic sense? What about a pillow fight sense?

    No? Oh, ok. I’ve always liked her… well not always, since I first heard her. This I can listen to all the time whereas some of her previous work was best reserved for rainy days.

    Its not an email it is a comment, I would have rather it been an email but since you all are automated now I guess this will have to do.

  9. Rachel on February 2nd, 2008 10:59 am

    Busted by the fuzz indeed, damn fuzz. And you’re sicky all the time, strep throat sicky, which is like the worse kind of sicky.

    Get better so we can chill to the next episode. ;-)

    Seems like I always hang out with the wrong crowd, now this girlie has music that had to come down. That’s it, I’m not associating with this riff-raff any more….wait, I had to take down a post I had by The Magnetic Fields for the same reason. Guess I can no longer hang out with myself!

    By the way, I did some research on this “Web Sherriff”–this is what I came up with:

    Damn Band of Horses fan I bet…:)

    HAHA! That was so funny! You’re a funny guy Chris :-)

    i seem to recall adam beggars saying on the elbows forum that no cat power tracks would be available prior to the record release, so i’m surprised they even have two up at the matador site. sucks that they found you, though, bastards! ;-)

  13. Wayne on February 3rd, 2008 3:57 am

    I love this record, but I also dearly love Cat Power. Silver Stallion is a great track, but Metal Heart and Song to Bobby are my favourites. Which I believe are the only two original songs. And she is coming to Australia again in March. hooray!

  14. Rachel on February 3rd, 2008 11:09 am

    Marcy, yeah it was no big surprise when the sheriff asked me to take those tracks down, since it is an album of covers different copyrights apply…Whatever. :-)

    Wayne, I am with you, I just love everything she does.
