ROB SEZ: Remember the long parade of "New Bob Dylans"? Seems like whenever a music journalist bestowed the label on a promising new musician, it turned out to be the kiss of death — or at least a guarantee of career-long obscurity. So when I say The Weather Station's founder and frontwoman Tamara Lindeman sounds to me like the new Joni Mitchell, I sincerely hope I'm not casting bad juju in her direction. I'm not making the comparison merely because Joni & Tamara are both Canadians. I say it because it's been forever since I could draw a sincere comparison between the great JM and another artist with anything close to her talent for songwriting, singing, and bottling magic in the recording studio. Lindeman deserves hundreds of thousands of willing hearts and minds to hear and appreciate her extraordinary musical art, which mixes folk, rock, singer-songwriter, jazz, and pop in roughly equal measure, depending on the album or tour in question. Very big thanks to willer for recording & sharing this one, which is a great-sounding audie. Please enjoy.
