Actually, I've kind of liked the recorded output I've heard from her so far. The
"Sunday Afternoon" 12", which is pretty hard to find, had some very club-worthy
grooves care of remixes by Chillfreez and such. The new "Black Forest" 12"
(which someone here referred to as something like "overbearingly breathy"...
indeed!) has some nice mixes as well, care of Jazz Moses and such, but I really
like the album version. It fits well in a spacey/funky DJ set. Not bad at all,
don't completely write Ms. Daou off.

drive to Chicago for a regional recording session. anybody have studio space)
but it seems we are putting more effort in it's conception that might be
necessary. What are we talking hear, a limited edition pressing of maybe 40-100
cd's? Sure a nice package is important and even a cool title but, who's going to
see this thing? You and me and that about it....."
I agree. It seems to me there is way too much discussion on this thing. When is
the search for a title going to end? It's great that this may happen, and I can
understand the excitement, but perhaps we should move on to other subjects until
James gets back with us on the next step. Just an opinion....
See ya & PEACE
