Free Music Notes for Lazy Line Painter Jane
Free Music Review: What would the VU sound like if Lou Reed had been modest?
Hit: 5 Stars
Now look, I don't care what else is on there, but I just spent 2 hours listening to the title track and being a Velvet Underground-o-phile I can say this is what the VU anno 69 might have sounded like if Uncle Lou had allowed a great female voice once in a while. True she sounds a little overly theatrical at first, but then again what do you expect from a song recorded in a church. Anyway, this one has less Smiths (you know, the group with the great lyrics but boring vocals), les Simon & Garfunkel and less Hazey Jane II (Nick Drake) in it than their other early songs, and more VU... so you won't hear me complaining.
As it happens, the other three are also good, though not as astral as the title track. Combined with the text on the cover, it is a feeling we've all been to. Long ago maybe. But then again, it should never be long ago. Sweeping chorus. I was just thinking how absolutely right this would sound sung by Iggy Pop & Kate Pierson... mmmm
Lazy Line Painter Jane Poster
Fans who missed out on the 3 import EPs between 'If You're Feeling Sinister' and 'The Boy With the Arab Strap' should pick up this set that puts them all in 1 box, as it's quality work and all non-LP material. A Matador Records release.The three four-song EPs that Belle and Sebastian released on their own Jeepster label in 1997 are regarded by many fans to be their most enjoyable artifacts, and it's hard to argue. Like a Peel session, there is a looser feel to these recordings; they're less perfectionist than the proper albums they bookend (Tigermilk and Sinister). And this is their charm: Stuart Murdoch and friends augment their preciously fey, orchestral pop with cross-genre elements and two great songs with spoken word on top that remind one of similar experiments conducted by the Mekons in the mid-'80s. The first EP includes an early, pre-Tigermilk demo of "Dog on Wheels," a delicious ditty that sounds like Nick Drake and Burt Bacharach working out a song in a practice space somewhere in Edinburgh. The choice to issue the music in facsimile editions--the only thing new is a piece of cardboard--rather than the single disc onto which they would easily fit seems a tad suspect. But these EPs do capture an unsteady group with great influences and good ideas in the act of transcending that to become one of the 1990s' smartest, most enjoyably decadent pop acts. --Mike McGonigal
