The Covers Record
[ Matador Records / CD ]
Release Date: Thursday 8 June 2000
In this solo guitar / vocal outing, Chan Marshall flexes her considerable interpretative muscle, tackling classics by the Rolling Stones, Michael Hurley, Nina Simone, Bob Dylan, Moby Grape, Smog, the Velvet Underground, and more.
"Chan Marshall, reluctant singer-songwriter, lives on the edge. Her barely-there music walks a tightrope between the lucidity of the day and a twilight world of haunted folk, aching blues and Palace-style Southern Gothic."
- NME
In this solo guitar / vocal outing, Chan Marshall flexes her considerable interpretative muscle, tackling classics by the Rolling Stones, Michael Hurley, Nina Simone, Bob Dylan, Moby Grape, Smog, the Velvet Underground, and even a re-recording of a Cat Power original. It showcases Marshall at her most haunting and powerful, taking songs you thought you knew and turning them into something entirely new. This is a wonderful display of Chan's huge talent and another Cat Power masterpiece.
