For all the seasons of your mind?

The universally panned: Janis Ian comes off like Avril Lavigne (Dylan is Green Day) but, luckily for her, sounds like The Aisler Set. Later I will predict the new Final Fantasy album with tough passages from Colin Blundstone's 1st solo record. Anyways, here's a hit:

Janis Ian - Society's Child

The connection is Buffy Sainte-Maire. Illuminations. Electronic sounds derived from the source material (the state of contemporary electro-acoustic music) and a variety of styles derived from peers (the state of etc, etc,...). Has anyone seen the film Guess who I saw in Paris?? I would really love to see it, if it exists, so please point me in the right direction.


Buffy Sainte-Maire - Vampire

hi saw your post on Society's Child and that gave me the impetus to put up my Janis Ian post I've had on the backburner for the past couple of days

I've got a couple songs from her up now (including the title song from her upcoming record - Folk Is The New Black)

hey, Carl from Zoilus here.... for what it's worth, Owen specifically brought up in my interview with him last year that the first solo Colin Blundstone album was a direct precedent for what he's doing now with the string quartet.

i predict it to be exactly like 'misty roses' at 2:50. also lots of runs leading up to dramatic disonant chords struck 3 times in unison. it's going to be a great album!
