Come on in.~~ Sit down and have a cup o' sweet with Angel. This is uncut stuff circa mid-80s nothin' but accordion, no vocals, a little reverb, and I heard some whitegurl finger- poppin' on "Beast Of Burden."~~ Yes, the Stones song. There's another one too:~~ "As Tears Go By."~~ But don't cry, even though this disc's mostly sadhappy in that special way Ms. Corpus Christi does so well.~~ She also angel-kisses the soft white melodic underbelly of the Monkees ("I'm A Believer"), the Velvets ("Femme Fatale"), the Beatles together (only version of "Hey Jude" you ever need to hear) and apart ("Imagine" as part of a medley with yet another Stones tune, "You Can't Always Get What You Want"). Yes, it does sound good.~~ Where else can you hear Santo & Johnny's "Sleep Walk," Roger Miller's "King Of The Road," and the Beach Boys' "Surfer Girl" done to (non-)perfection as solo-accordion (non-)pop instrumentals?~~ Ponder that while I get myself another cup o' "T."~~ Heh-heh. Plus:~~ "To Know Him Is To Love Him" (Phil "We-Love-Him- No-Matter-What" Spector's Teddy Bears), "Love Me Tender" (do I have to say Elvis?), "Jennifer Juniper" (Donovan), "Down- town" (Pet Clark), "Singin' The Blues" (I'd like to dream that Angel's version was based on Black Oak's version of the Guy Mitchell/Marty Robbins hit), and more more more!!! This Gulcher CD of ACCORDION POP is a reissue of the 1985 cassette originally released by Stim Records.~~ Angel has been making records for the past 20+ years, and is a long-time associate of the legendary Hoosier/San Fran avant-rock combo MX-80.~~ Her most recent album of new material, DIVINE HEALER, was released by Gulcher earlier in 2003.~~ But you already know all that, right?~~ Okay then, I'm gonna take a nap while I listen again to Angel pump away at "Denise" by Randy & The Rainbows (never mind Blondie's version).
