| earthbased (By a Big Lake) | Posted: Jan 03, 2010 - 20:20 Just bought Jet cd second hand. Great set of tunes. She seems especially underground. |
| RabbitEars | Posted: Oct 24, 2009 - 11:19 wow, i bought this back when i went to record stores and listened to stuff at kiosks. i've never heard it anywhere but on my own stereo. it's a good album. |

the attention awakes, does not have many data concerning this singer, only this song- ** 5 / 6 ** Far out, Catherwood. Just roll a couple of bombers and leave them on the side table. |

| peter_james_bond (Lunenburg, NS) | Posted: Feb 13, 2009 - 12:51 Another treasure unearthed by Bill and Rebecca. This is what Radio Paradise is all about! ...Or rather it's one of the great features of Radio Paradise. |
| rocklandlove (Hudson Valley, New York) | Posted: Nov 10, 2008 - 16:34 JET (this album) is one of the great undersung (no pun intended!) masterpieces. Katell is a rare, rare, soulful, one-of-a-kind artist. That she got signed to a major-label deal (Elektra) is a minor miracle. When they dropped her 2 critically acclaimed records later, it was the end of that miracle, but not of her. (There was an article on her in the New York Times Magazine a few years ago.) I urge every RP listener to buy this record, and really let it sink in. It's that good. |

But I do see this for sale very cheap in some used CD stores and always what to grab it and tell people, "Hey, this is a great little treasure right here and it's a real bargain!" Wasn't she Jeff Buckley's girlfriend? She has a mailing list. Plays a lot in The Netherlands and New York a few times a year. |
| sfListener | Posted: Apr 03, 2008 - 19:49 I'm just not convinced she's had one hell of a life. |
| cathenley (Santa Maria, CA) | Posted: Jan 31, 2008 - 21:05 She is really good!  |
| nigelr (Coffs Harbour, Australia) | Posted: Nov 30, 2007 - 01:03 When that organ came in at the intro I thought "Ah, Bobby" but no......... Pleasant enough however! |
| davin (Victoria, British Columbia) | Posted: Oct 29, 2007 - 14:45 Wow, this is a pretty irritating song |
| thewiseking (New York, New York) | Posted: Oct 29, 2007 - 14:44 sounds like Sissy Spacek. Not a good thing. |

Good choice. Poi Dog Pondering's 'Bury Me Deep' is on my list too. |
| wferrier (Johnson City, New York) | Posted: Jul 27, 2007 - 08:32 Not just the song, it's one hell of a CD. |
| sukilau (cellar dweller) | Posted: Jul 27, 2007 - 08:31 sounds like Helen Reddy's daughter (if she has one).... |

| enidualc (Guyville) | Posted: Feb 20, 2007 - 09:11 yes, yes i do...  |
| xkolibuul (Pacific Rim, watching the storms roll in) | Posted: Jan 21, 2007 - 10:49 As opposed to your commentary? To wit: Make superficial dismissive comments of music...toss a bone to lead singer based on looks. Haven't seen that here on RP more than, oh, maybe a few THOUSAND times. ibcoleman wrote: She's cute.

| RayRay (Göttingen, Germany) | Posted: Jun 16, 2006 - 03:51 One hell of a life... literally or figuratively? It's a good way to complain but still sound postive or perhaps to just keep 'em guessing... |

Never heard of her and yes, she is cute! |

| rabbitsongs | Posted: May 03, 2006 - 09:53 Keep playin' Katell!!! Love her! |
| rabbitsongs | Posted: Apr 27, 2006 - 14:16 The Gulf of Araby is off of Katell Keineg's amazing CD: "O Seasons O Castles" - go to her website (www.katellkeineg.com) and buy it! It's incredible music! Xpat wrote: Great song, great sentiment. Was it she who wrote "Gulf of Araby" that Natalie Merchant covered on her live in NYC album? I like that one a lot. I've never heard the original, though; maybe it could be found and uploaded to be played here? |
| dadofsammy (Hopedale, MA) | Posted: Apr 04, 2006 - 05:38 I'm not sure what I find more striking about this song - the lack of any melodic sense, the mediocre voice, or the unimaginative lyrics. One thing is very clear, though. She had one hell of a life. |
| weevilkinevil (close to Paradise) | Posted: Mar 20, 2006 - 11:56 My coworker thought she was saying, "One head full of lice."  |

| moonbat (Flying Low and Avoiding The Radar) | Posted: Jan 20, 2006 - 16:55 I like the lyrics much better than the song itself. |
| Dianyla (Portland, OR) | Posted: Nov 08, 2005 - 19:43 One hell of a nasally voice. Otherwise pleasant song.  |
| RabbitEars | Posted: Oct 10, 2005 - 13:15 haven't listned to this album in a good long while. it's solid. |

I think the awkwardness of her voice makes the song |
| Marr (Houston) | Posted: Jan 18, 2005 - 07:09 This is a great song and a great album. Not a "rocker", but they don't all have to be here on RP. This song helped my wife get through the death of her father some years ago. Not in any deep philosophical way, but just by reminding her that he had lived a wonderful life. I really like that RP is not bent on pleasing everyone all the time and is willing to take chances playing introspective songs like this. |
