Sam Phillips has been stripping her sound down for years now, but this is the first time I've really dug it. She's got these beautiful songs that are simultaneously polished and raw, with delicate delivery and awesome fuzz guitar. This one makes me think I should go back and listen to the last two. Fans of Aimee Mann who don't know Sam Phillips ought to rectify that situation post haste. And vice versa. Tidbit: If you like that Sister Rosetta song from the Robert Plant/Alison Krauss album, check it out as performed by the composer.
