Her appetite for work is endless and she always keeps it so fresh - fearless a committed interesting unpredictable Artist quite a repertoire - this record is class - Again!
I bought it when it was released 20 years ago. I listened to it all summer long. I still come back to it after 20 years, that's why I'm watching this documentary right now in 2024. For me that what music and artistic expression is about. One of the most important albums in my life. A raw masterpiece for sure.
That tiny shiny slinky blue dress... she got a LOT of use out that in 1995... not just Leno, but 'White Room' TV show in UK, and many live shows. #KillingIt!
I have fallen for Polly and her music quite late on. Since the White Chalk lp. I was, previously, more than a little afraid of her. She seemed to me like some sort of sex-witch. Metamorphosing into a pixie/sprite, more suitable to a goodie in Lord of the Rings than a dark goth uber evil demon destroyer. She is so natural and lacking in any kind of pretrntion or snobbishness, I think she is so talented and genuine. A profoundly great artist. Very rare and precious and valuable. ❤

A boyish thing to do to play that sort of guitar? I guess this guy has never heard of Sister Rosetta Tharpe? I guess that way of playing is regarded as a masculine thing to do but PJ Harvey certainly wasn’t the first to play like that. Don’t know what his point is really other than some people regard it as a bit strange, which is very strange to me. It’s like saying women are rarely aggressive or something - really weird.
