New Cat Power

Ok, the (s)Wheat Spot is back, ladies and gentlemen. It's a new year, and we've got some new music. Cat Power's Myspace has her entire new album 'The Greatest' available to stream until it's release. Also, you can pre-order 'The Greatest' [which they keep insisting is NOT a Greatest Hits comp] at Matador Records on either CD or LP Vinyl. [As an aside, I think that record labels should include a password for a free iTunes download for any album they sell on vinyl. That way, we can have the vinyl and still listen on our iPods. I mean, I want the vinyl, but we're a portable society, and if I can't play it on my iPod, i just can't listen to it as much. But I digress...]
Apparently, for this album Cat Power is aiming for the Hi Records soul sound from the 1970's. I don't know about all that, but what I do know is that the title track, available for download from Matador [and the (s)Wheat Spot!] is one of the most haunting songs I've heard in a while, and I can't stop listening to it. Enjoy.
Cat Power - The Greatest

i am all for a free music download with vinyl purchase. it has made music buying expensive for me thus far. if only record companies were as smart as us.
