Oh you bet. K.D. just has the voice. What a great version of Joni Mithchell's Jericho. Dig it. Hymnns of the 49th Parallel is definitely one of the very best albums I've heard in the past 10 years. Check out K.D.'s cover of Bird on a Wire, the entire album is a huge keeper. Thanks RP for playing a nice morning set, drinking my coffee, gettin ready for another day of earning my keep. |

I love K.D. all on her own but this reminded me so much of Laura Nyro ....

laozilover wrote:can a straight guy fall in love with a lesbian??? Well, yeah, but it may be a bit of a one-sided affair. Then again—straight or gay, a little love goes a long way. She'd be flattered, tho' perhaps not, um, moved. What a voice, eh? |

Meh. Jericho without Jaco on the bass is a snoozer...

Flawless light in a darkening air
Alone...and shining there
Love will not elude you
Love is simple
I worship this tenacity
And the beautiful struggle we're in
Love will not elude us
Love is simple
Be sure to know that
All in love
Is ours
That love, as a philosophy
Is simple.
kdlang.
The last in my musical legends series.....well hopefully one day she will be.

A K. D. Lang song I can listen to through until the end... not bad, this one.

I like Joni's version better. The Miles of Aisles version is the best  |

I checked the artist list because I thought this was a Joni Mitchell song I was unfamiliar with. Turns out I was wrong.....and right.

This is one Mitchell song that will be forever remembered for Jaco's playing. Sorry, but this version just doesn't cut it for me.

I really disliked this version at first, probably because it sounded to me like an ersatz treatment of Joni's very distinctive jazz-vocal style. I'm comin' around on it, though...6
 But it was debuted on the LIVE double-LP set MILES OF AISLES. |

I've loved Joni Mitchell from the beginning, she is an amazingly talented songwriter and singer, and K.D. has a wonderfully sweet voice that presents this fine song superbly!

Wow what a stunning cover of that song. Joni always sounded a bit strained on that one - but KD just glides through.

The French have a better name for what we call merely 'covers'. Instead they speak of singers who are 'un(e) interpreteur' and speak of singing someone else's songs as 'une interpretation'. This entire album is lady k d's (as Stompin' Tom called her - though I suspect k d would be the first to tell you she ain't no 'lady' ;-)) incredible interpretation of some beloved canuck classics. You could put the whole thing in rotation on RP as far as I'm concerned - go Bill!   |
