LILY ALLEN
Seattle 2007 [no label, 1CD]
Live at Showbox, Seattle, WA; March 26, 2007. Very good soundboard.
Listening to the Lily Allen catalogue is like visiting Epcot or Las Vegas: the songs are set randomly all over the world of musical genres (Afropop? Check! Cajun stomp? Check! and so on) and all burnished to a high shine. This music is light as helium, a sonic souffle covered in musical meringue that melts in ear. It’s all carbs and calories: it’s probably not very good for you and, eventually, it would probably make you sick, but IT IS DELICIOUS! People go to Epcot and buy churros for a reason. Enjoy. - mrsaureus + + + + +
Thanks to cpscps for sharing the show at Dime.
cpscps noted:
Touring in support of “Still, Alright?”. Lily’s in a bubbly and talkative mood, cracking jokes and requesting several “theatrical cigarettes” throughout the performance. Lynval Golding of the Specials makes a guest appearance on a cover of “Blank Expression”, their first run through of this song. Four months later she’d do the same at Glastonbury Festival which Golding said was a “massive part” in the Specials’ 2009 reunion.
