I wrote most of my master's thesis to Annie Lennox's Medusa and Tori Amos' Strange Little Girls. So I think it is not a coincidence that Patti Smith’s new all-cover CD, Twelve, arrived in my mailbox today, when I've been writing the second conference proposal that features dissertation material.

I also suspect the diss-writing will feature copious replays of everything Lucinda Williams ever recorded. Lucky, lucky Mr. Husband, whose study is directly adjacent to mine through an open door.

I. Want. That. CD. I think PS is one of the best things I got out of my first relationship. (My lover looked just like Patti, right down to the hairy armpits.) :)

I hate to say it, but it's not nearly as fabulous as I had hoped it would be. All the songs sort of sound the same. And I speak as someone who looooooves Patti — enough to have every single album on CD as well as MP3 plus the older ones on vinyl.
