Petra Haden

[Gerry]

Funny how these things come around. I was reading Film Comment magazine
of all things and find a one-pager on Petra Haden (Charlie's daughter).
She has a new album named "Petra Goes to the Movies".

This as a follow up to a recent project of "Sings: The Who Sell Out".

No pitch-correction on this baby:

I Can See For Miles

Though on her current record, there is plenty of pitch-shifting, though
I hear no apparent pitch-correction per se here:

Theme From Superman

It's nice the poster provided a partial transcription.

So I've been listening to a lot of her stuff, including some of her duo
with Bill Frisell, which makes this somewhat on topic. In the Frisell
stuff it all seems have mucho compression, chorus and delay on it.
It's a rich slippery "underwater" sound.

I think I'm gonna have to get my pedal board after all...

And a modern wet suit?

I think I'll stick with my traditional wet suit: It's worked fine before.
