Hey everybody, just wanted to let you know that the Rickie Lee Jones
anthology, Duchess of Coolsville, came out a couple days ago on June
28th, and I can already tell you it's amazing! There is so much
great music to listen to with three discs full of demos, hard to find
tracks, and songs that were never released. One of my favorite parts
of the anthology is a booklet inside the CD jacket with quotes about
Rickie Lee from respected artists like Mary Chapin Carpenter, Quincy
Jones, and Fiona Apple, tons of rare photos, as well as commentary by
Rickie Lee Jones herself. With over three hours of music you get a
little bit of everything, but some of my favorite tracks are the live
version of "My Funny Valentine," her collaboration with Dr. John on
"Makin' Whoopee!" and the re-mastered version of "We Belong
Together." I strongly encourage everyone to check out this wonderful
anthology and if you want a preview, check out the listening party here
