And what do you think a 24-year-old girl would have dared to say, even if she thought it, in an interview to promote her upcoming album that the work of the arranger (and what an arranger) wasn’t up to par...? Or that it was terrible...? I don’t know...

..even Tim Buckley liked the arrangement of the song goodbye and hello in his time, for example.. anyway, mine was just an opinion influenced by an aversion to external interventions, even worse if by "elders".. Van Dyke was a genius in many things he did..

Oh yes, when I say "forced," I really mean some moments that are too long... the fact that it is very well crafted (by others) is more of a flaw than a merit, but the gap between the first album (that one really doesn’t hold up over time..) is very encouraging for me... I think the personality is coming through.

...on the contrary, it’s always outside the lines because it’s free but never jarring...zzzzz if you already like Emily I want to know what you think of Only Skin...which perhaps has the most significant title...

Yes, the one about the white feather came to my mind immediately like a vision... on the other hand, the beauty is such that it even stirs my most insignificant and laziest imagination.... :) As for the hysterical one, well, I don’t agree... for me, she has a candor that is never out of line...

The review is a bit didactic and not very heartfelt...even though the intro was quite promising...anyway, for the rest, the album is imposing, majestic, and important, and it deserves a much more flattering reputation (maybe an even more flattering review) despite being, as Zigghio said, sometimes a bit excessive and redundant...

I miss them too, but sooner or later... of the great Lanegan, I only have Whiskey for the Holy Ghost... an amazing voice... a mix, for me, of Cobain's rage and Tom Waits' drunken rasp.
