That voice of hers isn't all that good, is it? |

Sorry, gotta say I really dislike this song. It's just bad, the type of song you just can't wait to switch the station.

I hear quite a lot of Mary's Danish influence... I don't think RP has ever played them though.

Damn! I've got a hard...longing ...for this gal. My dad had a gold '69 Cougar just like the one she straddles barefoot.
Cold shower time now, for sure!

I heard she wears out 3 reverb boxes with every album.

Mainly because a lot of the old country studios were anything but. The old Middlesex Studio in Middlesex, NC, (where a number of regional country and country-rock acts recorded in the early 70s) was a converted telephone switch building. Solid brick walls over a cement foundation with waffleboard interior. The sound inside was absolutely dead. Reverb was jacked up to make it feel halfway live. The "Barn" studio outside Greenville NC was a converted metal building that had started life as a tractor repair shop.
As for this Case recording - I like it because it was the first time I noticed that she has much more vocal control than I had previously given her credit for. The studio sound hides that. She's got a load of talent, like a young Linda Rondstadt. I'm looking forward to following her career.
Not often I get commended for using my brains! Thanks pjb!  And thanks nagshead for the fascinating music history lesson! |

I prefer the studio version myself. I notice a lot of people at RP are put off by the reverb in Neko's songs. I don't think it detracts from her studio albums and I suspect it's used to give a more authentic country twang feel like what was used in Patsy Cline's and other artists' music. Just as an aside I wonder if reverb was used in country in the first place to give the effect of the "great outdoors" as if the musicians are in a field or hilltop, music being influenced by its environment. peter_james_bond wrote:

Seen her a couple of times and never got that impression. Besides, she's pretty hot. And talented. |
