New Music/CD Releases - December 9, 2008

BILL'S PICK OF THE WEEK
CAT POWER - DARK END OF THE STREET (EP)
1. Dark End Of The Street
2. Fortunate Son
3. Ye Auld Triangle
4. I've Been Loving You Too Long
5. Who Knows Where The Time Goes
6. It Ain't Fair

It's no surprise that when Cat Power (aka: Chan Marshall), my second favorite artist currently making music, releases something new that it would be at the top of my list. I've heard half this EP; Dark End of the Street, Fortunate Son, I've Been Loving You..., and they are fantastic. This six-song EP contains mostly unreleased recordings from the "Jukebox" sessions. In keeping with the "Jukebox" theme, all the songs here are covers: "Auld Triangle", "Dark End Of The Street", "Who Knows Where The Time Goes", "Fortunate Son", "I've Been Loving You Too Long", and "It Ain't Fair".
