Joanna Newsom - Have One On Me
« on: 03 Feb 2010, 00:27 »

The new album will be 3 discs and have this cover:



Drag City is streaming a track which I love, Good Intentions Paving Company.  Seems she's still doing epics but is incorporating instrumentation in her recordings closer to what she performs with.

For the sake of completeness, here is a link to 81, which was pre-released last week.

My sister loves this girl, and can eerily imitate her pitch-shifting vocals to a 'T'.

Yessss

ed- now that I think about it 3 discs is a lot. I know it's been a long time since her last album but I hope there's a good reason it's so long.

One full CD is puppy jpgs.  Half of another is Joanna's new spoken word project "Poems for Galadriel".

Drag City has posted another track, Kingfisher, as well as the track list.

Quote from: Drag City
Easy 6:04
Have One On Me 11:02
’81 3:52
Good Intentions Paving Company 7:02
No Provenance 6:25
Baby Birch 9:30
On A Good Day 1:49
You and Me, Bess 7:13
In California 8:42
Jackrabbits 4:23
Go Long 8:03
Occident 5:31
Soft As Chalk 6:29
Esme 7:56
Autumn 8:02
Ribbon Bows 6:11
Kingfisher 9:11
Does Not Suffice 6:45

Yes, that adds up to more than 120 minutes or 2 hours of solid music.  I'm not sure where she is going to fit the puppy jpgs on those 3 discs.

I think I can sort of see where the dude is coming from, although maybe he is being a bit cynical. Also, I have never heard anyone say that she took her lyrics down a notch on Ys.

A pictorial preview of Tommy's chapter follows.



No one has left any reviews on the amazon page by the way.

Not that I'm suggesting that anyone here should leave a satirical review.  That would be wrong.

Anyway so, it's pretty good.  Yeah, that's what I'm going with for now.  I'll post something more substantive when I've listened to it a few times (in a few days in other words).

I'm really happy with it so far. I've listened once and plan to again soon. Only gonna listen to one disc at a time though. All 3 discs in a row's too much to digest.

For those who would prefer not to download prior to buying, but do want to listen, NPR is streaming the album in its entirety.  As usual, Bob Boilen wrote something well expressed and interesting:

Quote from: Bob Boilen
Some make music because they want to, but Joanna Newsom makes music because she has to — at least that's my guess. Newsom possesses the sort of artistic bravado that could only come from inner passion. She's just released her latest vision: A work called Have One on Me, it's two hours long, it fills three discs, it hardly has a hook or a hit, and you simply must hear it.

Actually, I'll rephrase that: You must hear "Have One on Me" when you're ready for a musical adventure. This isn't casual listening, and while that's usually code for "This record is hard to get through," this isn't a difficult record. It's even pleasant enough to put on in the background, but what you lose from a casual listen is the poetry and grace of an album filled with love and loss. I think Newsom is a magnificent storyteller.

These lines are from the title track:

It was dark; I was drunk and half-dead,
And we slept, knocking heads,
Sitting up in the star-smoking air,
Knocking heads like buoys
And a few lines later:

Meanwhile, I will raise my own glass
to how you made me fast
and expendable
and I will drink to your excellent health,
and your cruelty
Will you have one on me?

If you're still not sure whether you want to spend the next few hours with Newsom, I suggest trying the song "Baby Birch." Texturally, it's one of the most compelling tracks on a record with a lot of orchestral adventures. This song, however, has more textural counterpoint, with an edgy electric guitar appearing alongside Newsom's harp. That electric guitar is performed by Ryan Francesconi, and he's also playing acoustic guitar, Bulgarian tambura (long-necked lute) banjo, mandolin and soprano recorder — and that's just on the one song. Francesconi did the arrangements and conducting on the record, though Newsom wrote her own harp and vocal arrangements.

Those vocals are the friendliest and most welcoming I've heard from her: Her voice sounds richer, more restrained and relaxed — perhaps the result of adjustments she's made after developing vocal-cord nodules in early 2009. Those small squeaks I've come to love are still there, but they're less frequent and more effective. There's new beauty in a voice that's traditionally been, to put it diplomatically, polarizing.

This is a lot of music. I'm still taking it all in, and I can't do it on a whim. But Have One on Me is a journey worth taking.
