KIM GORDON
London 2020 [no label, 1CD]
BBC 6 Music Festival. Live at the Roundhouse, Camden, UK; March 8, 2020. Very good audio (ripped from HDTV webcast).
bbc.co.uk:
Modern music stars don’t come much more influential than Kim Gordon, whose former band Sonic Youth inspired everyone from Nirvana and Beck to Yeah Yeah Yeahs and The Cribs. In fact, Bikini Kill’s Kathleen Hanna once said of Gordon: “She was a forerunner, musically. Just knowing a woman was in a band trading lead vocals, playing bass, and being a visual artist at the same time made me feel less alone.”
Introduced by Don Letts as “an artist who has been representing from the get-go,” Gordon proved that she’s still as daring and experimental as she’s ever been. Frenzied rock wig-outs? Check. Deafening distortion? Check. Guitars being played with screwdrivers? Yes, that too. Truly iconic stuff.
