- "I\xE2\x80\x99m really not sure if this needed to be posted more because its concerning Chan Marshall, or because its concerning David Bowie? Seriously, let\xE2\x80\x99s think about this. On the one hand we\xE2\x80\x99ve got Cat Power. Probably the perfect candidate for a Boner Party1 and with raw talent to boot. On the other hand, \xE2\x80\x9CIt\xE2\x80\x99s [...]\n\n\

I taped infamous MOG outsider The Girlfriend as she discussed the best and the worst (mostly the worst) albums of the past month or so. Note to my Australian Trusteds: You get it in the neck for no good reason. Sorry. Feel free to use the comments to take down the Irish.It won't be hard. Excuses made, let us begin... Magnetic Fields - Distortion Fluxy: Well? The Girlfriend: A very morbid voice. But I'm sure there's market for that among some people. F: What typ... MORE

The Hot List These are albums that either a mogger or myself or misc. critics are high on: Cat Power, Jukebox: Sometimes when you do something again, the magic of the first time is missing. Not so with Chan’s new album in which she sings other people’s songs. Totally different from The Covers Album, you’ll love it. Mahjongg’s Kontpab: Mogger Jenny (http://mog.com/jenny/blog_post/138759) is our resident expert of great new and often obscure artists and albums. In a re... MORE

MOGstars 7/10 Cover albums are a delicate thing. They can be like Bowie's Pin-Ups and provide stimulating reworkings of well-loved tracks, or they can plumb the depths of Duran Duran's Thank You and border on Shatner-esque hilarity, or they can just sink into oblivion. Luckily, Chan Marshall has already navigated this minefield once. 2000’s imaginatively titled The Covers Album saw her knock down and rebuild everything from the Stones to Dylan in her own delicately haunt...

i must be on my 30th or more play by now. i'm loving this record. what is most disturbing is that i bought the vinyl for 34 bucks and i'm told that it was recorded in analog but matador was too cheap to give rti (the pressing plant) the analog copy OR the high resolution 96khz master. they gave the downsampled 16bit verion and rti then transfered to vinyl. i have no idea why it would cost more but anyhewwww.... recorded in analog, transfered to crappy redbook digital, ...

Here's Chan Marshall putting her spin on this Bowie Classic (which was itself a cover of a song made famous by Johnny Mathis - thanks Buzz!). And here's Bowie doing a very noir version:

For many who’ve seen Cat Power gigs over the years, calmness is not a word that immediately springs to mind when trying to describe Chan Marshall. Neither has she been, for large tracts of her confounding and exceptional career, much of a populist, exactly. Her distrait otherness might have been part of the appeal to some of us, but it would hardly work as a mainstream draw. Since last year’s “The Greatest”, however, Marshall seems to have become more than a hip name to ... MORE
