Went and saw Cat Power on Saturday with Christy Van House (my boccé teammate and pal).
At the ornate Orpheum Theater with a full 9 piece backing band, the Memphis Horns, it was an up and down show. She really had trouble with the monitors and her voice levels.
As a result, the songs that she played just by herself, with only piano or guitar stood out the most.
I think my fave was 'Where is my love?'. It really showcases what makes Chan's voice special. Half-lullaby, half-plaintive cry, half-love-soaked-reverie, it's gorgeous.
Excuse the hiss on this live version and soak in some Cat Power.
