      That album is incredible. (Rabbit Fur Coat)
      Lots of nostalgia for me, it came out when I was in highschool. Must have played it 200 times that year. Check out "I'm Having Fun Now" by Jenny and Johnny. "Big Wave" is my fav JL song.

Heads Gonna Roll, The Voyager, Just One of the Guys and Slippery Slopes are my go-to's. Also a bunch of Rilo Kiley stuff. So good!

    On a happier note, I've seen Rilo Killey a million times but only Jenny solo once. Wish her and Phantom Planet do a small tour together or some shows!

A big thanks to Harry for breaking out of the chart machine and giving folks a chance to hear this brilliant and incandescent performer and her band.

      Her best stuff was with Blake Sennett. Her album with the Watson Twins is one of my favorites of all time, but her other solo releases have been comparatively underwhelming if I'm being honest with myself. Of course, "underwhelming" for Jenny is still better than 95% of whatever else is out there.

    • @chriswhinery925
      @chriswhinery925 Před 4 lety +1

      @@ascotia I dunno, I think her solo stuff is more consistently good. Her best songs are mostly with RK but RK had some duds, especially towards the end on Under The Blacklight. I think all of her solo records are better than UTB. The first two Rilo KIley records were front to back brilliance though, that's not even debatable. Personally, I would rate her albums:
      1.) Take Offs And Landings
      2.) The Execution Of All Things
      3.) Rabbit Fur Coat
      4.) More Adventurous
      5.) The Voyager
      6.) Acid Tongue & On The LIne (these two are so close I can't decide on placement)
      7.) Under The Blacklight
      That said, even the lower ranked Jenny Lewis/RIlo Kiley stuff is significantly better than 95% of other bands.

    Chasing down another lead on Jenny Lewis, and of all people doing an interview with her it's long lost Rev-105's Kevin Cole. Yo, I still have my Rev Card! You never know.
    But about Jenny Lewis. Saw someone use the word "clarion" in an article about her. If you had to pare her down to just one word, well that's a good one. And to think she was shy about singing & playing piano at the same time. Wow.
    Quite an image, her driving along Dylan's Hwy 61 in a red convertible Porsche. Maybe an in-dash 8-track player, going thru Zim's back catalogue? Or Gordon Lightfoot.
    Some people are more than others. She is, and it seems like she's on the right side of things too, generally.
    So, thanks for that.

    Once again, we have the weekly periodical New Yorker, to thank for re-introducing us to great artists like Jenny Lewis. Jenny Lewis has been on the periphery of our general awareness for longer than we can remember. Perhaps she plays a similar role in your life? Happy to have her with us as she may be one of the best pop song lyricists (singer-songwriter) working today. A strong melodic voice booms out of this slight body.
