Cat Power - Jukebox Album

The Jukebox album is what contemporary jazz and blues sounds like at its best. While Chan Marshall may not be in a league with Nina Simone or even Annie Lenox, she is a convincing song stylist that brings her own charm and personality to every tune she sings. In this album of covers Chan shows why she is in a class all her own in terms of raw intimacy and the courage to tackle tunes like “New York , New York” that have been karaoked to death. Backed by her new collective The Dirty Delta Blues Band, including Dirty Three drummer Jim White and Jon Spencer, the sound of the album is as warm and genuine. It’s a definite must-have for jazz aficionados everywhere.
