{"product_id":"cat-power-the-greatest-lp","title":"Cat Power - The Greatest (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eChan Marshall's gorgeous, evocative albums as Cat Power have gained even more critical and popular attention than her idiosyncratic on-stage behavior (and that's saying quite a bit). MOON PIX (1998) and YOU ARE FREE (2004), the two albums of all-original material preceding 2006's THE GREATEST, were spellbinding affairs that pitted Marshall's haunting voice against a stirring m?lange of spare, low-key indie rock and atmospheric balladry. THE GREATEST, however, one of Marshall's most focused and impressive efforts, surpasses those two superb albums.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album is characterized by elaborate horn and string arrangements and a warm, polished feel, much of which stems from the old-school Memphis soul musicians Marshall has backing her (guitarist Teenie Hodges and bassist Leroy Hodges, both of Al Green fame, appear, as does MGs replacement drummer Steve Potts, among others). The sweet, earthy sheen may lack some of the raggedness that pleased Marshall's indie fans, yet the artist has lost none of her incisive songwriting ability, whether on moving narratives (the title track), countrified lopes (\"Could We\"), or spare meditations on loneliness (\"Where is My Love\"). More immediately accessible that previous Cat Power releases, THE GREATEST is no less distinctive or engaging: it sounds less like selling out than buying in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock, Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemember, for our lowest prices, always order directly from \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(184, 49, 47);\"\u003e Joco Records\u003c\/span\u003e!\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack Listing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1        The Greatest\u003cbr\u003eA2        Living Proof\u003cbr\u003eA3        Lived In Bars\u003cbr\u003eA4        Could We\u003cbr\u003eA5        Empty Shell\u003cbr\u003eA6        Willie\u003cbr\u003eB1        Where Is My Love\u003cbr\u003eB2        The Moon\u003cbr\u003eB3        Islands\u003cbr\u003eB4        After It All\u003cbr\u003eB5        Hate\u003cbr\u003eB6        Love \u0026amp; Communication\u003cbr\u003eB7        Up And Gone\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Joco Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48097608958211,"sku":"1QECE9-ULEA-00","price":22.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/phishstonesproducts.myshopify.com\/products\/cat-power-the-greatest-lp","provider":"PhishStones Products","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
