| Notes | Taper's notes from dimeadozen: The Stone was being curated by Hal Willner during January 2008 and he managed to convince Mary Margaret O'Hara to come down from Canada to do a couple shows. The first night was an all-improv performance while the second was to be a more proper concert. This is the second show. In fact though, it was a pretty loose and odd performance. Mary and the band (Rusty McCarthy on guitar and Michael Sloski on drums) played for about 40 minutes before Mary wandered into the audience to chat with a friend before being called back for an encore of sorts. That happened twice more times before all was said and done. The recording is fairly rough. Got there a little late for a good seat and ended up standing off to the side of the "stage" more-or-less even with the PA (a pair of banged-up JBLs). The guitar and drums sound great but Mary's voice is unfortunately muffled...but audible. While not a particularly tight performance, it's still a treat to see a rare concert by such a singular performer. I'm not sure of all the songs but have managed to figure out most of them -- a nice mix of some songs from _Miss America_ and standards and covers. |
