Throwing Muses Kristin Hersh - Firepile (live)

[MrDoremouse]

er i don't think you get much cooler than that!

[Lwize]

Never seen this performance before.

Excellent!

[UntogetherIsis]

This was the first Muses song I ever heard on an old UK music magazine/compilation called Volume. Started a twenty year love affair with everything Kristin Hersh that's still going strong.

I'm so happy to find this - I also had recorded this on vhs long ago and lost it - thank you so much for uploading!!

Very underrated and understated musician and songwriter.

Just reading Paradoxical Undressing by Kristin Hersh and loving the Throwing Muses all over again.

Couldn't they get her a higher mike stand? Otherwise, love it. What a talent!

[eggletsvideo]

@TheSQDoctor Or a shorter stool!

[pirut1]

I love her voice. I wonder if she has a sore throat afterward.

[rollerskater]

i'd bet this performance is pre-1994.

[DaDa2Phlux]

@rollerskater I'm with you on that -at least 88.I think She had switched ,thankfully, to the beautiful tone of her Collings acoustic by 94.

[MckyMseNTarotCrds]

@DaDa2Phlux Did you mean that you think this performance was taped in 88? I've read your comment twice, and I can't come up with anything else you could've meant. It's certainly much later than that. The poster listed it as being in 94 and I'd say that's about right, give or take a year. The song is the single from Red Heaven, which I'm pretty sure came out around '93. And I really don't think Kristin did very many solo appearances in '88.

[DaDa2Phlux]

@MckyMseNTarotCrds You are right ,thanks for being cool about it.

[MckyMseNTarotCrds]

@DaDa2Phlux No problem. Thank you for being cool about it. Correct anyone online, and you usually get some answer like, "Excuse me, Einstein. Sorry I'm not a total shut-in nerd like you" or some such thing, haha. Anyway, I can see why you thought it might be from the eighties: Kristin does look young as hell here. Damn, every time I come back to this video I'm struck. Her legs are friggin' awesome.

[MckyMseNTarotCrds]

Nice gams, Kristin.

[craigversion12point0]

[craigversion12point0]

[Volodioso]
