Cat Power : Jukebox

Already the eighth album for Chan Marshall, the American folk muse. Of these entrechats, delicate and fragile Cat Power offers a trip on the paths of crosses, in the form of an album of covers of classic American.

Our thinking ? A little frustrating, however, to see graceful Shan abandon the space of a few months writing for this great tribute to his elders.

His broken diva voice on the reserve is marvelous, anyway. Janis Joplin ( “Woman Left Only”) is revisited, as Sinatra ( “New York”), with a real desire to use them. But when we saw the epic “You Are Free”, interspersed with “The Greatest”, less essential but wider audience (see our article on the above calls-to-nothing.com), it expects one thing: see Cat Power back in what she was born to : writing.
