Paul, the first time I saw her she reminded me immediately of Atlanta's
own Michelle Malone, (of Michelle Malone and Drag The River) although
Michelle rocks a good deal harder. Is Michelle and the band still
playing in the Atlanta area? I first saw them in LA and they blew me
away. Sheryl looks/sounds like a more "commercialized" Michelle
Malone.
Cheers,
Ken

We had a chance to play with Michelle Malone at the New Music Seminar
in NYC back in July. she said they had just (as in that day) finished
recording their album.

| Great, it must be their long awaited second album, as I have their
first CD (Relentless) which was released on A&M in 1990.
Cool.
Cheers,

Re .2, I haven't seen Michelle Malone, but if she is in Band de Soleil, then
I know they were in town recently. Don't know if Atlanta is their home base,
but I will checkout "Creative Loafing", our weekly entertainment rag. If
Michelle sounds/looks like Sheryl, I am there.

| amazing, someone starts a note about someone and everyone talks about
someone else :')
I've got Crow's CD and some of it I like and others just don't hit
me...myself I see her coping a bit of Bonnie Raitt (not in playing
style just in style of song content)

679.9 | not a rocker album | 16913::MEUSE_DA | | Tue Oct 04 1994 13:21 | 14 |

back to Cheryl Crow's new album.
I've got her new album, the tape.
Except for two songs, her recent hit and another, I find the album
somewhat of a bore. Almost decided to take it back for an exchange.
The hit single, doesn't fit the rest of the album. Which is comprised
mostly of slow and meandering vocals.
It's one of those, ya got to be in the mood for it albums.

| I just saw her at Great Woods at the HORDE festival with Allman
Brothers. She is great live and immediately liked her. I wanted
to get her CD but from what I have read in this notes file, it
doesn't sound like she would be playing anything from the show.
Those songs really rocked, nothing really slow at all.

679.11 | I like Cheryl! A lot! | CUPMK::WIEGLER | | Tue Oct 04 1994 16:06 | 11 |
| I have the CD and I love it. The hit single (All I Wanna Do...) is not
truly representative of the rest of the songs, but I think they are
a nice eclectic mix. Overall, I think it's full of very good music.
Kind of soulful, kind of funky. I do think there is a similarity with
Ricki Lee Jones, although Cheryl Crow seems more commercially viable. I
mean that in a good way. I don't see much in common with Bonnie Raitt,
as a previous reply suggested.
And, yes, I guess I *did* notice that she is very SeXy HoT!

679.12 | Very refreshing (and listenABLE) | SUFRNG::REESE_K | Three Fries Short of a Happy Meal | Tue Oct 04 1994 16:43 | 13 |
| Paul,
Although my niece thinks I'm getting a little long in the tooth
to watch VH1, I must admit when Crow's video of All I Wanna Do first
came on it caught my attention immediately (I too am reminded of
Rickie Lee Jones).
I think she was VH1's Artist of the Month (last month); I thought
I heard them mention she's written a lot of music covered by other
artists, including Clapton.

| I see the Rickie Lee Jones reference too but it was the slower tracks
that reminded me of Raitt's latest release....I also saw some of her on
VH-1 and heard the Clapton cover bit but I can't find anything that is
credited to her....so unless she has another name this must be
something Clapton might have done on tour and has never released (if
someone knows what, if any, cover Clapton has done please let me know
I'd like to hear it)
as a marketing package she will clean up on her good looks thats for
sure.....anyone see her on the MTV awards show a month ago or so ?
yikes !

and production, so I got to hang with the band after the show...

Was Sheryl on the Letterman Show recently?
And comments?

679.16 | | CNTROL::DGAUTHIER | | Tue Feb 28 1995 13:47 | 14 |
| Overall good CD. Really love 3 ("Strong Enough", "Na-Na Song", "All I
wanna Do"... in that order), like a few of the others, ambivlient about
the rest. For a first album, I thought she did really well. Just hope
she can keep it up.
Haven't seen her on TV (don't watch TV) but if she's as good looking as
everyone says, that'll certainly help in the commercial aspect of
things. Some of her music reminded me of Eadie Brickelle (sp), off
beat, rhyme sometimes... no attempt to in the next verse, almost casual
talk in the middle of the song.
So where can I get a life size poster? ;-)

| Joyce Coolhaywick (phonetically spelled for those "hooked on phonics")
did a piece on "All I want to do is have some fun." The song came
from a poem written by a professor at Marlboro College. Someone in the
record industry picked up one of his 500 copies of his book of poems
and liked the verse so much he recommended it to Crow. The rest is
pop history. He read the verse...which gave it a new perspective.

679.19 | "Fun" by Wyn Cooper | LOWELL::MIDDLETON | John | Wed Mar 01 1995 22:20 | 16 |
| OK, here's some information that I got from an article in yesterday's
Nashua Telegraph.
The poet's name is Wyn Cooper, originally from Detroit, now teaching at
Marlboro College in Vermont.
The poem itself is called "Fun" and is from his 40 page paperback
collection of poems called "The Country of Here Below."
Apparently Crow picked up a copy out in Pasadena and wanted to make it
into a song. According to Cooper, most of the songs is from his poem,
with the exception of the refrain.
That's it.

| Did anyone else see Sheryl at the Orpheum in Boston last week? She
was great as was the whole band. Wyn Cooper was there and recited
his poem while the band accompanied him; crowd went wild. For a tiny
person, Sheryl can sure belt out a song! I'd go back to see her any
time.
Since I can no longer claim to be a read only noter, guess I'll go sign in
now. @@@:). Pat.
