Rickie Lee Jones & Petra Haden live@ Casa Das Artes De Famalicão 13-07-08

[pnyc1969]

I saw her perform this in NYC in June 08. She did a very similar arrangement. But there was a very nice violin piece in it. I love Petra's straight, elegant, pure soprano counterbalancing Rickie's quirky, unpredictable, off-center style. You might still be able to dl the concert I attended--Poisson Rouge 6/30/08. It was recorded and available on her website at one time. It's well worth it for the version of "Living It Up" alone. "...casting runes on the rooftops and alleys". Beautiful.

One of the great American composers.

It's a different planet if Rickie Lee ain't in it.

It's good to see Rickie looking so happy.

it's one of my favorite all-time albums, you just got to turn it up louder!!!.... I remember playing it in the car, in a market in Pittsburgh and everyone came up to the car and wanted to know who that was and could they pick up a copy of Flying Cowboys in the record/cd store... good times, good times!!!....

Yeah, I wasn't happy with the album production of this song either. Like what she does with it here.
