.. About This Release .......................................
: :
: The great French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson :
: once said, 'In photography, the smallest thing can be a :
: great subject. The little, human detail can become a :
: Leitmotiv'. :
: It's an apt idea when you talk about Jill Sobule, who :
: often writes about small things and peppers her lyrics :
: with keenly observed, evocative details. :
: On her sixth album, there's the hot plate and empty :
: pizza boxes of 'Freshman' that define a sad, extended :
: adolescent lifestyle. There's the talkbox and the :
: Peavey bass that conjure up a certain kind of druggy :
: 70's rock band in 'Cinnamon Park'. :
: In 'Joey', she paints a picture of the hard-living sex :
: kitten Joey Heatherton with mentions of a mattress ad :
: and the USO in 'Nam. :
: In 'Strawberry Gloss', it's retainers, Jean Natu and :
: "kissing the mirror to see how I'd taste" that lets you :
: feel the heartbreak of a shy teenage girl. :
: And in one of the album's most powerful songs, :
: 'Tel Aviv', Sobule gets inside the head of a young :
: prostitute who, in the middle of a trick, is :
: daydreaming of being back home on the farm with her :
: friend Sofia, 'running and laughing out loud down by :
: the river.' :
: All of this lyrical brilliance is matched by Sobule's :
: usual flair for melody. And that's what separates her :
: from a lot of storytelling singer-songwriters. :
: She knows from a good hook. Her longtime producers :
: Brad Jones and Robin Eaton (who doubles as Sobule's :
: co-writing foil) continue to display a facility for :
: bringing everything from movie soundtrack atmosphere to :
: Vegas bright light swing to funky R&B to straight-up :
: pop to the party. :
: :
: It's a shame that for many, Jill is still known as a :
: kind of one-hit wonder (the catchy lesbian chic song :
: 'I Kissed A Girl' put her on the radio back in 1995). :
: Anyone who spends time with this album, or any from her :
: back catalog, will discover that this is a deep, funny, :
: and engaging songstress who deserves more than a cult :
: following. :
: Or to paraphrase the title track - :
: 'Underdog victorious, she is simply glorious'. :
