Brother\'s visit...music trip report...
my brother devin came to visit me this weekend. he made me a mix that at first i was shocked to [censored] about.
usually he'll make me a mix combining some great selections from classical/rap/jazz...usually some brendel playing beethoven or other great piano sonatas/concertos, then some rare Big L or Nas, then maybe som ray charles/stevie wonder (i got him listening to superstition and he loves it)
this time was different though...i got 3 musicians on a 15 song mix. no rap. it was Dvorak, Chopin and...
therewere 5 songs by FIONA APPLE. at first i was like wtf...then i listened to the instrumentation and lyrics and im hooked. utterly fantastic musician.
i recommend three songs "extraordinary machine" "red red red" and the "waltz" song. you guys can take it from there. listen to the words.
