Cat Power – The Greatest

Cat Power
“The Greatest”

Well, I wouldn’t call her the greatest. That might be reserved for Mohammed Ali, but she is great.
I first learned of Cat power through television commercials. After that, I went musical-spelunking for her works. She’s got some great tunes.

This one has bits of “Moon River” in it. Can you pick it out?

    i must agree that cat power sounds pretty good. however, be warned that she puts on a “quite silly” live performance. and apparently has been doing this for a while. when i saw her last year, she was at least 20 minutes late, while her band was playing for her, and when she came out she was high as a kite and flopped around, not really even singing. after the first two songs, i went elsewhere. but i really do love this cd, as well as the work she did for V for Vendetta. thanks jg!

    I never thought I’d hear “Cat Power” and “Moon River” in the same reference, but you’re right, The Greatest has a bit of that in it. I checked out her new Jukebox release. The arrangement on Ramblin’ (Wo)man is captivating. Hard to believe it is the same song as the original by Hank Williams. I wish she’d release the commercial song, but the word out there is it ain’t gonna happen.

    I think another year is in order. Here’s hoping!
