How To Put Drag Bars On A Sportster

K.D. Lang "Drag" (1997)


A good woman is discovered with his masterful reading "So in Love" in tribute to Cole Porter album "Red Hot + Blue" (90). Best of this album, apart from the tech version of "Night & Day" by U2 , making a love song into a haunting ode to obsessive (which amounts to a reinterpretation of a song well done, apart from the package modern records to find new music), two ladies were mighty voices: KD and Sinead O'Connor singing the "You Do Something To Me" (being an advance on their cover album "Am I Not Your Girl ", 92).

Truth guadianescamente I have followed the career of this woman, but this "Drag" has convinced me in his favor. I also remember a spectacular version of "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor who listens to perform at a concert (can not remember which) they cast on television. It is unfortunate that only see this woman talking about the topic of homosexuality recognized, when a top performer. On the record before us centers around a series of very different versions, turning conceptually on addiction to snuff (although sometimes they let some license as in the case of the version of the Hollies or "The Joker" ). This, say, at the lyric or the concept that involves the versions. Musically, the issue becomes more important, it combines classicism (the songs, the interpretation) and renewal (such as original arrangements on that emphasize below). The mixture of historical classicism Jimmy Haskell (impressive resume, his is, for example, the award-winning string arrangement of "Bridge over troubled water" ) with atmospheric guitars (as stated in the libretto as "guitar loop" by David Top, provide the album a timeless, dreamlike, dreamy, and outside time.

To give some details, the final orchestration, as sounding from afar, the beautiful version of "The Air That I Breathe" of the Hollies. Deleted horrible original guitar solo, the song won integers. Or the beautiful game between similar tones of the organ and the vibraphone in "Smoke Dreams" that give a very close to Julie London records. To which also helps the savoir faire of Lang. Al "Do not smoke in bed" of Peggy Lee gives it subversively lounge atmosphere, although it seems paradoxical. What in the hands of others might be just easy listening, that is, sounds nice, it becomes something ethereal in this album. The catchy version of "The Joker" is a very conventional, not bad, the disk, although the tempo is changed and brought to ground. It also has merit its fabulous version of "Til the heart caves in" of his friend Roy Orbison or convert " The valley of the dolls" in a torch song, even more reading that Dionne Warwick.
