I'm in love with Bill Withers

This is Will speaking. It's true. I can't get Bill
Withers' "Ain't No Sunshine" out of my head. I want to
hear it constantly. There's a live performance of it
on The Old Grey Whistle Test DVD that our producer
Tracy Chisholm loaned to me. (By loaned to me, I mean
that I've had it for about 9 months and he may never
get it back). It just blows me away. It's less than 2
minutes long and it's f*cking gorgeous.

Then I read a recent interview with Bill where he the
interviewer was asking him about his feeling's on the
sampling of his work by modern artists, primarily in
hip-hop. His open-minded, supportive and reverant
answer made me love him even more.

"Ain't No Sunshine when she's gone..."

I sing it EVERY day.

PJ Harvey at The Orpheum

Jeff and I went to the Orpheum to see PJ Harvey on
Monday. Holy, good God that was one of the highlights
of my life. Without exaggeration we both concluded
that that must have been what it was like seeing
Hendrix or someone equally Wizard-like. There's lot's
of cool artists out there, but only a few that seemed
touched by the hand of God. PJ is certainly one of
those few.

She started the concert with the sickest rendition of
"To Bring You My Love" we could have hoped for. The
cover of her "TBYML" that's on our new record is
something we're really, really proud of, but it's
clear that that's HER song! Just her and a fat guitar
tone pumping out one of the simplest guitar riffs and
most unadorned and direct lyrics but to pulverizing
effect. All hail the 50 Ft. Queenie!!!
