Spent the night w/these three discs:
All I can say is - this chick is NUTS.
And I mean that as the highest possible compliment.
Others can probably describe her music better than I, so let me just say that there's a density here that opens up easily & beautifully with each successive listen, a subliminal musical polyglottishness that bespeaks having absorbed to the point of no longer having to mimc outright, and an attitude towards the "rules" of mainstream melody, harmony, and song structure that could best be described as wryly fuquitous.
And oh yeah - soul & intellegence out the wazzoo.
I'd like to think that the further we get into the 21st Century, the more we're going to be hearing "street music" of substance like this, but who knows? Maybe Georgia Anne Muldrow is just a freak, this is all she's got to say, and oh well, wasn't that fun while it lasted? Time will tell, as it always does.
But until then, if you're looking for something kinda "left-fieldish" that is even more substantive than it is "unique", and if you're not a "purist" (jazz or otherwise) who thinks that "hip-hop" means The Death Of All That Is Sacred And Good About Our Music And Life, then hey - check her out.
This chick is NUTS. :tup :tup
